[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a person currently stuck living in MoCo for commute reasons, I sure hope FCPS passes these laws and means business, or we'll lose all of our UMC families in a hurry.  It may happen either way, honestly.

[b]That said, I cannot wait until reasonably priced academically vigorous smalk private schools start popping up all over the DMV because SOMEONE needs to educate high achievers[/b].  Clearly the education boards are not considering it a priority anymore.[/quote]

I live in a part of Fairfax that's sort of overlooked-- most of the schools don't qualify for Title I, but they're in the 35-45% FRM range and the 3-5 GS ratings range. So, not in danger of losing accreditation but could definitely use more support for a lot of needy students. My kids play in a local sports league that chooses teams loosely based on your assigned public school's proximity to practice locations. Probably half the kids on my children's teams go to local private schools and they all live in our school pyramid. I don't know about the pricing, but at least three new private schools have been built in my area in the past 10 years. I suspect they're staying full or else they would've gone out of business.[/quote]
