[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Welcome to Alexandria. Want to see how your dollars are squandered? Go sit in front of any of the east end grade schools at drop off. Half the traffic is 20 something black ladies with beat up Altimas with MD tags dumping a car load of kids out.[/quote]

This simply isn't true. And who would make that kind of effort to send their kids to Alexandria's schools. Some of the east end schools (George Mason, Brooks, Mount Vernon) are the worst in town. [/quote]

Wait, Brooks is now one of the worst? That's my school. Is this true?[/quote]

It's true. Look at the proficiency numbers for the kids who can't afford tutors. 27% in reading and 25% in math.

41 reported incidents of behaviors of a safety concern
7 reported incidents for behaviors that endanger the health, safety or welfare of others.

Even George Mason, the other really bad east side school, isn't as bad as Brooks. [/quote]

Sure, but we aren't talking with the mom of a kid at 27%. Context matters. But you knew that.[/quote]
