[quote=Anonymous]You are in a great school pyramid! Arlington schools are way better than Fairfax and they pay their teachers more = better teachers. Arlington has amazing options and the school board seems to always be looking at the latest educational approaches. In Arlington if, for any reason, you don't like your schools, you have more opportunities to change them (choice and lottery). In Fairfax you don't. Fairfax really depends on the school and they are not known for innovation. Lots of testing, lots of HW, and old-school "talented and gifted" program (that they only changed the name for to make it sound better). If you kids goes to any of the Arlington schools, you can get into Harvard. And, it is impossible to know if you kid is Harvard material at 3, BTW. All parents think their kid is a genius at that age.[/quote]
