[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Class composition info is available on the school websites for you to evaluate according to your own measure of diversity. Churchill is great. Chesterbrook probably too. Longfellow is the AAP middle school, so if your DC could be in Longfellow no matter where they went to elementary school. Langley is simply a better high school, overall (look at college admission stats) - but McLean ranks higher on many charts, who knows why. [/quote] College admission stats can be misleading. Many of those kids who got into the selective colleges probably have he advantage as legacy admittance (e.g. their parents went to that college also). Not surprising since the areas that feed into Langley are wealthy and less than 1% of the kids qualify for free or reduced lunch. Also, there is no lower income housing nor are there many or any townhomes or apartments.[/quote]
