[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep dreaming, and maybe one day TC Williams will crawl it's way to a GS 3...
What's it now? Oh that's right, a 2. Same as last year and the year before that. I don't know what's more pathetic, that rating or threads here speculating that Alexandria will build another high school for only the rich white kids.

You are right, APS should have made Wakefield bigger, because it's where all the millenials are crowding now.

The millenials have make their choice, and it isn't TC. Sorry about your bad luck and property values.

You can find some information about Wakefield here (just keep scrolling down until you're near the bottom):

This is some really compelling stuff!  TC Williams scored ( on average) 27 points higher! Wow. Your kid could attend class is a volatile environment, witness beat downs in the hallway every day, AND possibly score 27 more points on the SAT. I'M SOLD![/quote]

Honestly, everyone knows that Wakefield has an especially low cohort of higher achieving kids. TC is a big, diverse school with great crew (classic UMC sport) teams.  Wakefield is worse than TC, Stuart, Annandale, etc.[/quote]

Yes TC is so great. That's why it's a GS 2! Oh wait! Buffy and Todd and row - so it must be outstanding! The only thing consistent over there are fights. Lol. Nope. Sorry. The younger middle class families have made their choice. It's Wakefield. 
But keep putting pressure on ACPS to get you that segregated school you are praying for. It might happen one day!

I do agree that Annandale used to be good and that Stuart has potential. But if I were to invest in any of the lower performing schools, it would be Wakefield. People want Arlington. Deal with it. [/quote]

You ought to talk to the folks in Arlington Forest. They certainly didn't want Wakefield and neither do most people who care about education. There isn't a single group at Wakefield that on average does well, and that won't change with all the plans to saddle South Arlington with even more AH.  Nervous, much?[/quote]

Oh those silly older gen x in Arlington Forest. Maybe they really are always getting a raw deal? Wouldn't know. Those of us who are 15 years away from high school can't really be bothered with the orange shirts. Too busy watching out schools improve and property values soar...
I suppose I'd be upset if I thought I paid a premium for a certain school. Of course I didn't. That would be silly, as school boundaries change.[/quote]
