[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an immigrant, I could never understand why there was such a disparity in education quality across the U.S. I couldn't understand why poor black areas had such worse schools compared to more affluent (and usually white) areas. But this thread has been an eye-opener. I understand this much better now. It seems the more affluent folks want their money to benefit only them and their families. They don't see the benefit to society of elevating everyone and giving a good education to all children, regardless of their socioeconomic status. Don't people want the US to succeed long-term? How does keeping poor people less educated benefit a country in the long-run? [/quote]

Oh, brother. Come back when you have a better understanding of exactly how many decades McLean and Great Falls have been footing the bulk of the bill for new facilities across FCPS - but not receiving anything in return.  Langley only recently received a long overdue renovation.  McLean has needed an expansion for years now.  After decades of supporting the rest of the county, it is our turn now.  Deal with it.[/quote]
