[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From what I've read, W-L would be average or slightly below average in Fairfax and Wakefield would be at the very bottom.  Yorktown was really the only Arlington school we were prepared to consider, and the only one comparable to the better Fairfax schools.  [/quote]

Says the Fairfax poster[/quote]

Huh?  Nottingham, [b]Williamsburg[/b], Yorktown.  Best in APS.[/quote]

Um, no. Would never choose Williamsburg over Swanson. Maybe 15 years ago...[/quote]

That would put you squarely in the minority, then, pp. Williamsburg is widely regarded as the most desirable MS in Arlington.[/quote]

Or you, PP, could just be stuck in the past. While academics are about the same, it's a well-known fact that Swanson has a much more nurturing environment than Williamsburg. Oh, and fewer instances of behavior that one would not expect to have to deal with at least until hs. Most N.Arl. parents I know are either happy they are at Swanson or regret not being there.
