[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok what?? Where in the world is this Wakefield-MS 13 connection coming from? In a matter of one page, the McLeans went from bashing its academics to claiming it's East LA.

Are you just pulling random crimes from all over Alexandria, MoCo and Fairfax Co and attributing them to a high school in Arlington? Show me the actual reports that show a legitimate gang presence at the school. Waiting...[/quote]

Four Mile Run and Columbia Pike puts you squarely in the Wakefield district.

This story, about a fugitive from Texas, is literally the only one anyone every posts when asked this question, on any thread about South Arlington schools. This and the one about the shooting in the Kenmore parking lot in 1997.

OP, this is a questionable source to get answers about Wakefield if you're not the type of person who sends their kid to 7 hrs/day of SAT prep all summer long, would buy a Lexus over a Camry, and can't figure out why junior speaks to you that way when Janet Lansbury told you it was just a matter of being patient and visualizing your outcome. Many people who don't fit those categories don't tend to post on DCUM in general. I'm a future Wakefield parent so can't answer your question directly, but we are a white UMC household, both Ivy-educated with grad degrees, make enough to afford North Arlington (or McLean), and live in South Arlington zoned for Gunston and then Wakefield. Also we drive a Toyota. [/quote]
