[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's pretty telling that some on DCUM think that Langley and Mclean, which are even richer, whiter and more privileged, don't have similar rates of drug and alcohol use. (Must be those super-motivated Asian kids setting good examples!) While I would love to see the arrest stats for FCPS, it could just be an indicator that the YHS community is actually trying to do something about it. [/quote] Langley and McLean are not whiter than Yorktown. Langley is richer than YHS, and McLean is about the same as YHS. I don't give YHS any special credit here, or think Langley/McLean are necessarily going out of their way to ignore issues. Area schools tend to be more reactive than proactive when it comes to student mental health or drug/alcohol use, and YHS just seems to have more to react to at this particular moment. [/quote]
