[quote=Anonymous]Someone recently posted information indicating that there are 112 students living in the Falls Church HS district this year who have transferred to other schools, and only 9 students living outside the Falls Church district who have transferred into the school. I know both parents and students can talk trash, but I'd ask neighbors why there are so many pupil placements out of Falls Church HS. FCPS doesn't arrange transportation for out-of-boundary students, so people are deciding it's worth the extra effort to drive their kids to neighboring schools like Marshall, Stuart and Annandale (or allow their kids to drive). These cycles can be hard to break. Once some parents start transferring their kids to nearby schools, other parents may feel pressure to do the same thing. Adults bow to peer pressure, too. But 112-9 is a big enough swing in the wrong direction that I'd want to know what's driving the out-placements. [/quote]
