[quote=Anonymous]Good lord, who has the time to dig up these statistics for school districts they don’t even live in. We get it PP. You have a 1.5m house in the exurbs and send your kids to private school. Please make sure to tell us all that fact over and over again while you disparage schools that your kids don’t even attend. I’m sure you’d rag on my $1m Arlington house, but I don’t care. I grew up in a big fancy house and it was fine. But we had to get in the car to go everywhere and we were too far from the city to go in very often. My family has chosen walkability (to metro, parks, restaurants, trails, etc.), short commutes, and the ability to go into the city often for date nights, museums, etc. It feels like the best of urban amenities, but with a quiet suburban neighborhood feel. It’s perfect for us. My kids are excelling in school. They will go to HS at Yorktown, which is “only” a 7/10, but there’s so much more to life than fretting over average test scores. Our quality of life here is really great. Sure our house could be fancier, but we are the type of family that likes to get out and about anyway. I’m glad you found something that works for your family, but you should really sit with yourself and ask why you feel the need to make gross generalizations about people sending their kids to public schools in Northern Va.[/quote]
