[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do people not like ACPS schools because they are failing racial / ethnic minority and low-income students? For our children TC Williams (Alexandria City) is a 10/10 on college readiness and a 7/10 on test scores because they are white and not low-income. Do people not send children to ACPS schools out of protest of the poor education for minority/low-income students or because they are worried about their own children? New to having older children (new full custody of teenagers), so I am genuinely curious and not trying to troll. We are a military family moving with teenagers for the first time, and I am trying to gauge what the sentiment and reasons are for not sending children to certain schools (outside COVID).[/quote] Translation, you and your family will get yours, despite an apartheid education system (within a system). Ironic or may not for a supposedly progressive city dominated by Democrats. TC and now Alexandria High is overcrowded which transcends race and class lines. In theory there is one campus. In actuality there are two 9-10 and 11-12, and in any event they are internally segregated. As long as you don’t teach your children that it’s the ideal and not a failure of Democrat policies, it’s probably fine.[/quote]
