[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Falls Church City is a very elitist neighborhood separate from any poors, so I find this whole discussion a little silly. Falls Church City has the smallest differential between students in probably the entire DMV area. And because they are wealthy they can do a lot for each child. Fairfax has kids with many needs that Falls Church City just doesn't have. Seems silly to be complaining about AAP when Falls Church City does nothing to help bring in more lower income housing etc. which would really help diversify the city.[/quote]

OP here.  I agree.  That is why we are moving.  We want to move into a more diverse neighborhood. There is no other reason we are moving.  My kids are getting a great academic education in FCC, but not a real world education by not seeing economic and racial diversity.  Because of our concern about integration, I was alarmed by the idea of separation of the "smart kids" and generally have an allergic reaction to putting kids in boxes.[/quote]

How many threads have you started about your dire predicament?  Aren't you the same poster who asked about Marshall vs. W-L vs. George Mason for IB?

I mean, perhaps you're actually concerned, but it sounds more like you're just bored and want people to engage with you.  [/quote]
