[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I moved my family to a GS 8 school and absolutely crossed off all the GS 5 and lower schools. The decision wasn't completely rational and is the result of my own experience at bad schools. I came out of these cesspit schools with not even the option of AP/IB or a language other than French/Spanish but I could probably naturally survive a prison sentence if it came to that. My mind just can't accept that the lower rated schools around here are large enough to actually have decent programs where any motivated child can succeed.[/quote] Yeah- you clearly aren't very familiar with this area. There are a wealth of options for kids at every FFX school- even the "bad" ones. I think your post clearly illustrates how the advent of sites like Redfin in conjunction with great schools has really done a lot of harm to the DC region. Nova is extremely transient, and when people are moving in with limited time they make similar judgement calls as the above poster. [/quote]
