[quote=Anonymous]I've worked for FCPS and have traveled to all schools within the FCPS from ES to HS and I noticed a few things: - ES/MS/HS in places like Langley and Mclean are much better off than schools in places like Springfield. The PTA at schools in Mclean and Langley are flushed with$$$ from donations that they can buy things and take field trips that other schools just simply can not. - The parents from Langley and Mclean are very pro-active in getting things for the classes, especially in ES. I guess having a lot of disposable incomes do help. - ES kids from school in Springfield areas are mostly minorities, Hispanic and AA. A lot of them from single parent home with multiple siblings from different fathers. Not a very good environment to be in. Almost all of them have breakfast and lunch provide free of charge, - ES kids from schools in Langley/Mclean are mostly white and Asians and I think they want to keep it that way.[/quote]
