[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Under-enrollment (or “low subscription”) just means fewer teachers and fewer electives, not smaller class sizes.  If I were picking between these two schools I’d go with McLean - more diversity and less “affluenza.”[/quote]

Except that Langley won’t be under-enrolled or “low subscription” at all, starting this fall, and h[b]as never been in any danger of having fewer teachers or electives.  [/b]I’m not sure why some of you keep pushing this nonsense.  Actually, it’s very obvious why.[/quote]

+1.  Envy.[/quote]

It’s just a fact that schools with lower enrollments get allocated less money for teachers and electives in FCPS, especially if their student bodies are wealthy.  [/quote]

DP.  This may or may not be true, but the above still stands.[/quote]

Langley parents go on about how "normal" the school is and then, if someone expresses a preference for another school, chalks it up to "envy."  Get over yourself. [/quote]

Oh, sorry.  When the usual trolls complain about “affluenza,” we tend to speak up in defense of our school.  Especially when the person making that idiotic complaint doesn’t even have kids at Langley in the first place and is just spewing the usual garbage.[/quote]

And when the Langley trolls try to go on about how "normal" they are, we tend to laugh and thank them for proving our point by trying to have it both ways.  Especially when they're refusing to acknowledge published school stats and publicly available information.  Rich people being defensive over their advantages is hilarious, and the inability to see beyond their own worldview is kind of sad.  Guess money can't buy everything.[/quote]

And your kids attend which school?  I assume McLean or Langley since those are the subjects of this thread and there’s no way that you would continue to read and post on a thread about schools you really know nothing about.  Right?[/quote]
