[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think maybe we disagree on what public schools mean in a fundamental way if you believe that the price of the house a child's family can afford should directly determine the quality of their public school education. Maybe you should get a cheaper house and pay for private school.[/quote]

Or maybe you should acknowledge that FCPS short-changes the public schools in McLean and then takes credit for the high achievement of their students that is a result of the additional resources that the parents there have to fork over on their own. [/quote]
The top schools in Va (after TJ) are Langley and Mclean HS. Langley got a beautiful renovation done recently. Apart from the over-crowding issue at Mclean HS, how exactly are these schools being "short-changed"?[/quote]

Apart from the shooting, how did you like the play, Mrs. Lincoln? [/quote]

Langley got got a renovation, now other schools in the county are- should McLean jump in line? [/quote]

It's been pointed out repeatedly that McLean also needs additional permanent capacity, and that other schools that were built after McLean, were not otherwise due for renovations, and are less overcrowded were allocated millions for additions, while t McLean will be a second-hand modular.  If responding to immediate needs is "jumping in line," you should have a much bigger issue with the largesse other schools like Justice and West Potomac are receiving.
