[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tucker is year round so you don't need to send your child there. BTW it's definitely not a neighborhood school, most children are bused in.

Hands down, FFx cty is the better choice for schools.  I would be there is plenty of historical data to back that up too.  The schools might get marginally better in 5 years in Alexandria but that's it - marginally. They are pretty bad now with the exception of one or two. MS and HS are really bad.

[b]Cameron Station is ok but it's basically nice housing they dumped in a ghetto -y area.[/b][i][/quote]

LOL!! Really? Boy, are you sheltered!?!  When's the last time you went to the surrounding areas?  I know this area well and it's far from being "ghetto-y" as this poster suggests.   :roll:  Folks on this board....

Cameron station is just a marketing name to make people pay more and not feel bad about moving to the Landmark area which is what it is.

Let's see ... I was over in that area yesterday and I am quite certain that the scores of low income, ugly, old apartments were all still standing.[/quote]
It's fairly ghetto - once your inside the development, it's great, but the surrounding area sucks.  There's an industrial park that backs into the develpment, which by the way, is where a rape occured.  A woman from Camerson Station was running very early one morning when she was sexually assaulted.
