[quote=Anonymous] [quote]I find it laughable when people use the silly argument, "oh, but families with gifted kids would cease to move to Fairfax!" We've already established AAP isn't a GT program. So families who have highly gifted kids (few and far between) aren't hanging all their hopes on a move to FxCo for its "world-class gifted program". People move to Fairfax for all kinds of reasons - mostly because of the many great job opportunities in the area. Not because of AAP, for crying out loud. A quick look at the sharp decline in the number of Asian kids the second you cross into Arlington tells you otherwise, as does the very small number of NMSF in APS compared to FCPS. But please keep arguing the same point over and over again. It's like watching a gerbil. And you are like listening to Forrest Gump. Have you bothered looking at the size differential between the districts? And those horrible, awful property values in Arlington. This canard that the best and the brightest will flee FCPS if centers are eliminated is just laughable. [b]And really, moving resources back into the schools rather than rearranging logistics and staffing is a non event. Get over yourselves.[/b] [Report Post][/quote] +1000 :D [/quote]
