[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC has a population of about 700,000. FFX pop is 1.1 million, and TJHSST gets students from Loudoun, Arlington, and Prince William as well. DC cannot support a TJHSST.[/quote] Realistically, the picture for a DC magnet is much worse than even the raw population totals suggest. The pertinent number for a high-standards magnet is the size of the Asian population. DC has about 25,000, Fairfax has about 200,000. Tack on another 100,000 or so for Loudoun, PWC, and Arlington. DC is light years away from being able to match that. DC magnet is just for people who want the veneer prestige without having to compete with the suburban talent. [/quote]
