[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are we acting like all NoVa schools are amazing lol. MCPS def wins on the school front based on sheer numbers of well performing schools. Between Fairfax, Arlington, and Alexandria City.. there are a handful of schools that perform as well as MoCo schools. Honestly if I had the choice, I’d choose MoCo schools. High performing and diverse.

I live in Arlington btw. Our HS, Wakefield is middle of the road in academics and the other HS in the county are homogeneous so it’s the best option. Einstein would be the equivalent and I’d actually prefer to send my kids there. But we work in VA so here we are. [/quote]

TJ/Langley/McLean/George Mason/Madison/Woodson/Oakton/Yorktown > Whitman/Churchill/Wootton/WJ/B-CC

But the bigger difference is in the number of schools in NoVa that are solidly above-average. About 1/2 the schools in MCPS are now circling the sewer.

Wakefield is well below average for NoVa.

LOL at Yorktown, where white kids don’t score as high as their peers at Einstein on the SATs. Einstein is the Wakefield and is outperforming Yorktown whrn you break it down by demographics. Look at this thread for more info:

MoCo is more diverse. When you break down SAT scores by demographic group you will see that they’re not lagging at all. Convenient that you left out Poolesville and Blair...[/quote]
