[quote=Anonymous]Hard truth: if you're not ok with your public option, you move or go private.  Join the club.  In this area, there's a reason people over-extend for mortgages on small old houses or cram a family of four into two bedroom apartment despite having a six-figure salary.  There are no bargains and we're all taking a hit of some sort to get our kids into schools we're happy with.  Some suck up a crappy commute.  Some suck up an overpriced house or apartment.  But none of us get to just assume that our otherwise awesome location that is affordable and offers easy access to DC will have the same desirable schools as the much higher priced counterparts nearby.  Yes I know arlington is one county, but so is montgomery county and I dare you to tell me the schools in Germantown measure up to the schools in Bethesda.  It's not fair, but it's an old story that plays itself out in this region every day.  South Arlington has been getting the short end of the stick for years now and while I'm sympathetic that it's getting worse, you'd have to have your head buried in the sand to have expected any different.[/quote]
