[quote=Anonymous]My kids went through FCPS AAP. One now at TJ. One at a base school that falls within the top 1/3 in most rankings. Like PP, culturally diverse, highly educated neighborhood. I have been very please with my kids education. You’d expect the TJ kid to have amazing STEM skills— and they do. But both kids are getting a solid humanities grounding, a good understanding of history, civics, politics. Both are being actively taught to write well, which is important to me. I don’t see the sky falling in in FCPS. Now, we aren’t zoned for Justice, Lee, Mt. Vernon, etc. but we aren’t McLean, Herndon either. You can buy a townhouse zoned for my kids schools for under 300k. A comfortable SFH in a nice neighborhood with sidewalks and kids on bikes and a community pool for 600k. [/quote]
