[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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] [b]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][/b] I think you need to look in the mirror[/quote] I live in the Langley district and idc what anyone else thinks about it. Yes the school has very few FARMs, more wealthy and upper middle class people. I'm pretty sure my family is on the low end relative to the rest of the area and idc about that either. I enjoy my huge yard, the wildlife (deer excepted lol), the hometown events and the people are nice contrary to some outside opinion. My kid goes to a school with low-to non-existent incidences of violence, an active PTA and many good teachers. I'm not concerned about luxury cars in the parking lot. There will always be someone richer or poorer than you are, and getting your panties in a twist about it will do nothing but cause you to need neosporin for the butthurt.[/quote] :lol: Yes, queen. Own it. I feel the same way. DP[/quote]
