[quote=Anonymous]I'm not a defender of ACPS or APS.  My kids go to FCPS.  I don't understand why people feel the need to bash any system or any particular school.  From what I've seen and experienced, there are great teachers in all schools and there are marginal teachers in all schools.  The public schools are required to accept all students (as a PP noted), whether they've been in this country just a week, if they have intellectual diabilities, health issues or whatever. Come one, come all.  My kids are some of those that drive down test scores.  Two of them have learning disabilities and one is in an immersion program.  Frankly, I don't care about test scores.  My greatest concerns are if my child is being challenged and if they like going to school.  I don't know of a single school in NOVA where that won't happen.  Besides, research is quite clear that the greatest indicator of academic success is the mother's education level and the family's socio-economic level.  I can only think that those who feel the need to bash are, in some way, trying to justify decisions they've made.  That's their issue, not mine.[/quote]
