Huh? ASFS isn't that highly sought-after. No more than any of the other North Arlington schools.

ASFS is perfectly fine, but it's just a STEM school. There's not particularly unique or special about it, and it's not like people are clamoring to get in.[/quote]

ASFS may not actually BE better than other Arlington (or NArl) schools, but you wouldn't know it to hear a lot of parents talk. There is clamoring. Justifiable clamoring? No. But it's there.

PS And there aren't degrees of uniqueness.[/quote]

There is a fanaticism about that school. Families often move from western Lyon Village zoned to Taylor to the eastern part (on the other side of Highland St.) zoned to ASF/Key. [/quote]

Just as rampant are these urban myths.  I live in LV and do not know anyone that moved from Taylor to ASFS/Key zone.  They may have moved because they outgrew their house, etc.-but I don't know of a single family that moved due to the school assignments.  I think everyone is in agreement that both Taylor and ASFS are comparable and excellent schools.  I would have been very happy at either!![/quote]
