[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want to add that these are walkable neighborhoods with plenty of parks and things to do. It’s a great place for kids and teenagers to grow up. If you want a combo of urban and really good schools (not “the absolute best” schools, I agree), then choose here. [/quote] +1 we live in Ashton Heights (Between Clarendon & Ballston). Kids did Long Branch/Jefferson/W-L. We were, for the most part, happy with their school experience. Both were well prepared for college. There are plenty of opportunities for a high achieving student at W-L. However, the current push for "standards based grading" which seems to = no grades and no idea how your kids is doing would concern me if moving to the district now. But maybe that equity fad of the day is coming to Fairfax too?[/quote]
