[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just did the private school tours earlier this year for our 4 year old for kindergarten next year. I was surprised that many of the K-8 private school alumni choose to attend public school (gasp, yes TC Williams).[b] These students seem to graduate at the top of their class at TC Williams [/b]and move on towards top universities including the ivy league schools. I have heard about yale or jail about ACPS. We personally are not willing to gamble and will be going the private school route. We will reevaluate in junior high and then again in high school. That is if we are still living in Alexandria.[/quote] TC offers lots of AP classes; hence, the Yale track at the school. Most of the students leaving the Alexandria privates will go to TC to take advantage of the AP classes. I would guess that if a parent felt their child was not going to be able to get into the "Yale" track at TC, they would then continue to send their child to a private high school and for good reason.[/quote]
