[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For a smaller more hand holding environment, I think you need to go to Falls Church City. Con of falls church city is that those kids have been together since elementary so it may be a bit harder for your kid to break in socially. [b]Other high schools in inner burbs are pretty big. [/b]But it is a good chance for kids to learn to advocate for themselves if you think your kid is up for it. We moved from DC to Arlington and are happy with middle school. Don't have experience with high school yet but we are so happy we moved.[/quote] For the inner burbs, WL will be the largest by at least 800 (36% more students)[/quote] 36% bigger than what? Alexandria's high school has 4,000 students. Montgomery Blair is 3,100. [/quote] Oh yes, we aspire to be as good as TCW…. [b]Blair is only so large because they boosted its status by adding a magnet to a neighborhood school[/b]. McLean, the W schools, Langley, Marshall, all way smaller. [/quote] Uh...that's what happened with WL with the IB program and WL-zoned families refusing to be rezoned elsewhere. Thus, the continual increase in size. [/quote]
