[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]22:44, I might agree with -- or at least understand -- you if OP was talking about Stuart, Mount Vernon, etc., or even South Lakes/West Potomac, but Fairfax? Come on. You've gotta be a pretty big school snob to be steering folks to the Big 5 (Langley, McLean, Madison, Woodson, Oakton) from Fairfax. [/quote] The whole "Big 5" talk seems like an effort to talk about public schools as if they are select, private schools. They aren't. They are still public schools that are part of a large county-wide school system that is very good in some respects and very bureaucratic in others. I've had kids at both a "Big 5" school and another FCPS high school. Neither of those schools was Woodson or Fairfax, but each had its advantages and disadvantages. I wouldn't let the school assignments dictate the decision where to buy a house in Fairfax, except perhaps at the margins. [/quote]
