[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To add to the above info, Meridian HS, the school for Falls Church City is the smallest high school in Northern Virginia. So if you want to save some money, the public schools from middle through high school are very small.

The only smaller public school is HB Woodlawn in Arlington (grades 6-12 and about 70 students a grade), but entry is by lottery only, and the waitlist is hundreds of students long.[/quote]

I live in Arlington so no firsthand experience, but I’ve heard FCC schools referred to as basically a “public private.” But you pay tuition in the form of housing and property taxes. Which is why posters are saying to give the public schools a glance if you’re considering living there, but otherwise don’t pay the premium only to go with Catholic school.

I think a lot of the kids at St. James come from surrounding areas where the public schools aren’t as highly rated as opposed to within FCC but that is totally my anecdotal knowledge. Perhaps someone whose kids attend there could say otherwise.[/quote]

I know Catholics in FCC that send their kids to St. James. [/quote]
