[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow such vitriol. I was just curious. We are a young family and about half our block goes to private — if we were doing it again, we would have moved to Fairfax and saved the tuition money.

Combined with less frequent commutes, I wonder if Arlington prices will actually decline. [/quote]

You are so, so clueless.  [/quote]

Seriously. Starting with, less reject the premise that the schools lack rigor. What an absurd, lazy trope unsupported by any evidence.[/quote]

They eliminated gifted [b](NO)[/b], zero homework policy [b](TRUE in certain elementary schools)[/b], unlimited test retakes [b](NO, can retake if get below 80)[/b], and standards based grading [b](TRUE, again this is elementary schools)[/b]. Rigor ELIMINATED [b](MAYBE but PROBABLY NO. You should check your facts before you say others are being lazy)[/b]. [/quote][/quote]

Uh, I didn’t call anyone lazy. That was angry PP.

But yes, gifted is essentially gone, with all students being offered some water down options handled by an over worked classroom teacher.

Zero homework true.

Retake tests is TRUE, just if below 80

Standards based grading is coming to all grades, except AP [/quote]
