[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did this analysis a few years ago. We were moving for good schools and we ended up in McLean zoned for Langley. I do think FCPS > MCPS > Arlington. It also feels like there are better private school options in MD than VA. But FCPS has TJ. I do think if there was no TJ, the fcps high schools would get a boost. TJ is majority Asian and they are not wealthy Asians so most would end back at their base fcps high school.[/quote] We did the same analysis and found MCPS > FCPS > Arlington. There were just richer opportunities available at MCPS that seemed superior to AAP which was watered down.[/quote] Everyone in the area did the same and decided on what was best for their individual family. You can’t go wrong with any of these. A strong student will do well in any of these. I would focus on commute and housing you like best and afford.[/quote] +3 There are some strengths and weaknesses in all three of these school districts. They are all good school districts and will serve good students and not-so-good students well. Commute is key.[/quote]
