[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fairfax County is coasting on it’s reputation from the 80’s and 90’s, but the current reality is very different. Back then, the county’s schools were considered good county-wide. Now, some schools are quite good and others pretty bad.

The US News ratings are based on recent data, which continues to indicate that [b]the top FCPS schools are the best in the state, [/b]based on a range of metrics that FCPS didn't pick.

^ Due to the kids who go there, not the schools.  This isn't rocket science.  Se how Langley and McLean come in at the top?  I still question what happened to Oakton though. :?: [/quote]

It’s really the ecosystems at the top schools: students, teachers, parents, and the school-based administrators.  It’s not the bricks and mortar and it certainly isn’t central administration. [/quote]

It’s really the parents’ education level and also their money.  The teachers at Justice aren’t any worse than the ones at Langley or McLean.  [/quote]

That's exactly right!  There are good teachers and mediocre teachers at every school.[/quote]
