[quote=Anonymous]Don't you need to know if the OP's friend is white or black or asian or hispanic? B/c when you say "Langley is the best" you are really talking about the white kids at Langley do well.... and when you say that about Oakton (referring to SAT scores), you had better be sure to include South Lakes right next to Oakton. WHAT>?????? you say????? South Lakes???? scoff, scoff..... oh yeah... the SAT scores for white kids are just 20 points lower than white kids at Oakton. So, before you go claiming that certain schools are "the best" and certain schools aren't worth sending your dog to.... you had better be a little more specific. And you also might want to rethink whether it's the school that is so great or just the high income/education populations that go there (and that fact that those same types of kids go to other "less desireable" ... i.e. more diverse.... schools too.) Look beyond Langley, McLean, Madison, Oakton and Woodson. [/quote]
