[quote=Anonymous]We have had kids at both Marshall and McLean and have been pretty happy with both. Neither was perfect; each had pros and cons. We have friends at Madison and they are generally happy as well. Langley seems to evoke stronger feelings among some parents. Maybe it's due to the unique environment at that school (no other HS in NoVa has such a uniformly affluent student body) or maybe it's due to parents having higher expectations because "it's Langley." I know that when one Langley parent complained a while back on DCUM that the guidance counselors there were pressuring her daughter to take virtually all AP or pre-AP courses as a sophomore, and telling her to be prepared to spend at least five hours on homework every night, it wasn't anything we'd experienced at either Marshall or McLean.[/quote]
