[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, I'll be straight, even though I'll get blasted.  My DH is convinced our child is a genius and wants her to go to TJ.  She is 3.  He says he wants to do everything he can for her education, including moving to have a better shot at TJ.  We can't afford McLean (it's even more expensive than Arlington), so I was looking at other Fairfax pyramids with homes under $700.  Unlike my DH, I'm not convinced that there is a big difference between APS and Fairfax schools, and that she'll still have a chance to get into TJ as an Arlington resident.  I'm also not convinced that she's a genius.[/quote]

Were you and your DH in a gifted program as a child?  IQ is partially heritable, especially maternally.

And we are in FCPS, but I've heard plenty of parents complain about the lack of a "real" GT program in Arlington, FWIW.  [/quote]

Yes.  DH's IQ in the 150s.  I've never had an IQ test, but was a National Merit Scholar and went to top 4 schools for ugrad/grad.  [/quote]

You guys must not really be that smart if you can't afford a more expensive house.[/quote]

This is so terrible.  And yet, well...now, that you mention it.[/quote]
