[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not a troll. Just trying to get some insight. Many of the posts I've read reference things like sports.
My kids are too young for me to know if I care how good the girls volleyball team is, but my hunch is that we will care more about academics than sports based on their athletic talents (or lack thereof) so far.

Some of our neighbors have experienced fights at Cooper and drug exposure at Langley. Is that just the case everywhere now?
We chose our current home specifically to be zoned for Langley but now that we're hearing more and more about it I'm not sure its a good fit for us. We're trying to figure out if McLean or Madison might be better or if we should look into private schools.

Probably not the case everywhere as much as at schools like Cooper and Langley where kids have access to easy money and parents are quick to “lawyer up” and claim they can do no wrong.

I’d keep talking to your neighbors to find out more. You’re going to run into some people here who are mostly concerned about protecting their real estate values, so take their boosterism with a grain of salt.  [/quote]

I will bite. I have heard about vaping in the bathrooms. I know upperclassman have big drinking parties. My underclass child has never been to one of these parties. I mean these same kids will be going to college in a few years so I don’t think this is that big of a deal and every kid in every high school will have some bad rebel kids. The rebels at Langley are not that bad.[/quote]
