[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No catching up necessary. All those high schools within that ten mile radius are all About equivalent. Few minor differences but nothing to get your feathers ruffled about....Oakton, Robinson, Madison, Fairfax , Woodson, West Springfield, Chantilly, Marshall.  Your kid will get a good education at any one of these.[/quote]

This is probably the sanest thing on this thread.

Realistically, you have:

TJ (not a separate toer since its a regional governors school.

Tier 1: Langley and McLean

Tier 2:  Oakton, Woodson, Madison, Chantilly, West Springfield, Marshall, Robinson, LBSS— and one will top the other depending on how you prioritize the numbers and which factors you give more weight. But a smart kid from a UMC home will get a great education at any of them.

Tier 3: Fairfax, Westfield, Centreville, Herndon, South County, SLHS, W. Potomac, Hayfield

Tier 4:  Mt Vernon, Lee, Justice (Stuart), Annandale, Edison, Falls Church— which makes it very hard to justify continuing IB at all of these schools except FC. Keep it at SLHS, Marshall, Robinson (where it is working) and one of these. But, that’s a different thread.

It is hard to see Fairfax in Tier 2. They are GS 7, like Westfield and Centreville,  and average SAT scores for 2017 came in below SLHS, Herndon and Centreville.
