[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.

I don’t want above average, I want the best. There are no non-magnet schools in NoVA with a 10/10 rating like Churchill. Whitman and Wooten are better than any non-magnet school on that list as well. If you put the magnet programs at Poolesville and Blair up against TJ they are a wash. MoCo’s best 5 inbounds schools (Churchill, Wooten, B-CC, Whitman and WJ) > Fairfax’s top 5. Don’t believe me, check out GS ratings and SAT scores.[/quote]
