[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All APS schools have successful outcomes because of very engaged (as told by this thread) parents. Yorktown is…Yorktown…More wealthy parents who can afford more tutors so get better outcomes. W/L has IB, which is great, but valued more in a place like Arlington, that has many State Dept families who move a lot. Wakefield has the AP Capstone program, which is newer, but valued similar by colleges to IB. The highest math in all is DifQ. The big secret in APS is that it all has the same basic curriculum. All schools have the same underlying structure!!! There is more racial and economic diversity engagement as you look south, [b]but if thats not your priority, then go north. [/b] All have: good schools, crazy parents, over stressed kids. Buckle up![/quote] So, what you're saying is, all the schools are academically comparable and good but you should only go to the south schools if diversity is a priority because the northernmost school gets "better" outcomes? No point in the south schools if diversity is not your priority? [/quote] DP but you obviously have an underlying motive. You are twisting this poster's words to fit your agenda. I think 'buckle up's' advice is sound. [/quote]
