[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not convinced that the size of the schools is the/an issue. Lake Braddock and Robinson were each 4k students back when I attended in the 1990s (albeit a combined 7-12 grades) and I'm sure they're larger now. We all certainly felt the size, but it wasn't a detriment - it was simply our reality. [b]Like living in NYC[/b] instead of Des Moines - neither is better than the other, per se. Though I do appreciate the complaints about sports team sizes. Either way, my daughter is thriving at GWMS. We'll keep our fingers crossed for ACHS.[/quote] As a native of NYC and former ACPS parent, I assure you this is comparison is deeply flawed. I'm glad you're happy at GW. We liked GW, too. But it's indeed excessively, unambiguously overcrowded. And that affects almost everyting else. Glad your daughter is thriving there, but kids do get lost in the shuffle there. And the English/language arts curriculum is terrible.[/quote]
