[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you decide to go the Falls Church/Fairfax County route (as we did), look carefully at the school pyramid you're getting into. Some are better than others. [/quote] +1. Generally speaking, you should look to avoid Falls Church in Fairfax County, as their schools are subpar to say the least. [/quote] Um, Haycock? Lemon Road? Both excellent elementary schools that feed to excellent middle and high schools. OP - we looked at both and prefer Falls Church, Fairfax County, literally one block from FCC. This means we do almost all of our business in FCC. We chose this because we are a mixed race family and wanted our children in a more diverse school. People will tell you FCC is diverse, but it's not socioeconomically diverse at all. I know one hispanic family that moved away because their child felt different and was bullied. That said, the schools are highly rated and have a lot of money so if that's what you want, go for it. [/quote] Thank you this is helpful.[/quote]
