[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Obviously this is APS. [/quote] Nope probably FCPS McLean area. I've heard many people say that about FCPS. Class sizes are pretty big now in FCPS. [/quote] Yes, probably FCPS. People have higher expectations there, so also you’re more likely to see more grousing.[/quote] Higher than APS :lol: ? [/quote] I am in FCPS and most people I know in real life are pretty happy in APS. Yes, they have their big picture bitching about crowding and boundaries. But on the ground, their class sizes are smaller and they retain teachers better than we do.[/quote] Student performance in APS peaks in elementary school, declines in middle school, and declines more in high school. Overall it pinches well below its weight, and some of us moved to escape APS’s mediocrity.[/quote] I moved from Arlington because of the schools. I don't agree that they are "mediocre" -- my kid learned a lot in middle school. But we wanted a less crowded environment and found it in Loudoun County. [/quote]
