[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Prediction:   In ten years, FCPS will be struggling countywide in all schools with dropping scores and those with the means will be going private - if they haven't moved from this liberal hell hole.

This.  It’s so easy to see what’s coming down the pike and I am eternally grateful my kids will be done with FCPS before then.[/quote]

Prediction:  people will stop being mad at the Langley boundaries and instead whine and complain about all the people in GF who send their kids to private school. [/quote]

And the school board and Fairfax County will start buzzing about how to block this by thinking they can make public services contingent on public school attendance. [/quote]

That would be something.

It's always amusing when people admit that they have to force people into participating  because they are offering an inferior experience. [/quote]

Except that hasn’t happened. The county is happy to collect taxes from people who send their kids to privates and save FCPS money.

Things might be different if voters were voting down school bonds or electing candidates who opposed local taxes, but that has not happened.  If the next School Board were to follow an aggressive agenda of favoring lower-income schools over schools elsewhere in the county at every opportunity, you might see more voters turning their backs on FCPS or looking to split the county into two or more separate jurisdictions.

You are assuming that the wealthiest and most highly educated people in the county will allow this to happen.[/quote]
