[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with PP about Marshall when they say it has less community feel.  While the test scores are not affected, I think it absolutely affects what people think of the school on this board.  However, while I am not Crazy Marshall Lady, I do think that the school's reputation will increase as Tysons becomes more built-up.  It will theoretically at some point become a real community that doesn't just center around the malls like it does now, and I think Marshall will reap major benefits from that growth down the road.  But who knows - that could be 20+ years away.[/quote]

This article notes that some at Marshall are trying to get the school's mailing address changed from Falls Church to Tysons.  I think that's consistent with the observation that the school is trying to forge more of an identity, so that people will associate it with Tysons the same way that they already associate Madison with Vienna.
