[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arlington schools have been heading off the rails for awhile. Credit to GS for recognizing this.[/quote] APS' college placement is sorely lacking. It is a good school district if you want to send your child to a 2-year community college or the military, but not good 4-year colleges. [/quote] The numbers are pretty cringe inducing. Yes, I know—UVA and William and Mary, but those are just state schools.[/quote] "Those are just state schools?" Ok. Because no one who attends a good state school ever does anything meaningful with their life... :roll: [/quote] UVa and William & Mary are very good institutions -- no knocking them. However, beyond these two in-state schools, APS' rate of sending graduates to Top 25 universities or Top 25 liberal arts colleges is abysmal. In sum, if your top/reach schools are UVa or W&M, APS is fine.[/quote] DP. This. Exactly.[/quote]
