[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why in the world would anyone live in McLean? http://www.businessinsider.com/best-school-district-every-us-state-2018-1/#virginia-arlington-county-public-schools-45[/quote] I'll go with the US News ratings. https://www.usnews.com/education/best-high-schools/virginia Business Insider is run by a guy who was tossed out of the securities industry for fraud. [/quote] Even the McLean Patch thinks Arlington is better: https://patch.com/virginia/mclean/mclean-high-schools-among-most-challenging-virginia[/quote] That's based on the Washington Post Challenge Index. When you look at the percentage of kids actually passing the AP/IB exams, as opposed to merely taking the courses, the McLean schools do better than Yorktown, W-L and, of course, Wakefield. TJ isn't included on that list because it's a selective magnet. [/quote]
