[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing is --- the curriculum at all the FCPS schools is the same. Some people pay more in housing so their kids can have richer/whiter friends. Whatever. [/quote] The student body is also important not just the teaching curriculum. [/quote] Definitely. I don't want those brown and black colored hoodlums screwing up my kids' education. When is the next klan meeting? I've got to pick up my sheet from the dry cleaners. [/quote] Part of the ranking is how well minorities perform. I doubt that many of large populations of FCPS asians and hispanics will be attending the klan rallies at any of the top 10 schools listed. Learning has nothing to do w/ race and the list proves that you can be of a lower SES, different demographics or be a minority and FCPS will help you excel.[/quote] Then, why are the schools with highest minority populations not on the list? Enough said. [/quote] TJ has a lot of Asians and is 61% minority, McLean has a lot of Asians and is 39% minority, Oakton is 39% minority, Yorktown is 39% minority, Woodson is 40% minority, West Springfield is 40% minority, Marshall has a lot of Asians and Hispanics and is 46% minority.
