[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Alexandria is the only inner suburb of Northern Virginia that I would consider "historic" but you would need to send your kids to private if you want "good schools." Northern Virginia probably isn't for you - lots of new construction. [/quote] Really? I live n Old Town and my DS attended ACPS K-12. He's going to Middlebury in the fall. His closest friends are going to UVA, W&M, and Duke. Is that from going to 'bad' schools?[/quote] Yes just because they are the top of a poor school, doesn’t make the school good. [/quote] So you think someone looking for a Pied-à-terre in Old Town to split their time there and Manhattan.... would be one of the poor underserved families? The point missed every single time ACPS comes up is that it serves the UMC families extremely well. A point people reluctantly admit to right before they accuse you of being a racist for not..... underperforming. Very odd. It's like they are angry that your kid got into UVA from ACHS. OP- I'd encourage you to follow achsdecisons2024 on Instagram if you'd like to see where the kids of this [i]terrible, terrible, terrible[/i] school system are continuing their education. Alexandria City HS is sending more kids to ivies than all the privates combined. [/quote]
