[quote=Anonymous]I'm not from the area originally but I think the reputation of Fairfax County schools is kind of overstated. It's good to see a large school district have so many well performing schools, with so many transient/military families and so many who don't speak English as a first language. But I'm originally from Ohio (Cleveland area) and I can tell you the public schools there are excellent. Not in Cleveland proper but many of the nearby suburbs. Everything from elementary to high school is 9 or 10 on Greatschools and exceeds all state standards. I went to school in an area between a suburban and rural area and all the elementary schools, the middle school, and the high school in my town were 10/10 without exception and I got a great education. The one downside is that many of the schools are somewhat smaller which is a disadvantage at the high school level as they can't offer as great of a variety of AP classes. [/quote]
