[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can see paying the money for private if you want a religious (e.g., Catholic) education for your DC, but otherwise it doesn't make economic sense and in no way guarantees better college matriculation. Yorktown is very strong, and offers more AP classes than any private in the entire DC area, so for a motivated student, Yorktown doesn't take a backseat to anyone. [/quote] Parent of current YHS senior. I agree that YHS offers more APs classes than any student could possibly take. The quality of these classes varies. The AP World History class my child took was first rate - 5 on the test with minimal outside preparation. On the other hand, AP Computer Science is known to be a total joke.[/quote]
