    Jefferson obviously isn't on a par with Hamm or Williamsburg, but it's the fastest improving APS MS. No longer one to avoid.

Hamm is only in its second year.....

Starting its third year…

..and still not around long enough for another school, which has been around much longer, to be judged as being "not on a par" with it.

NP. They aren't comparing the schools. They're comparing the school demographics. Doesn't matter how long Hamm's been around....it's wealthy and in the north.

*They most certainly are comparing the schools, NP. Read the above closely.
    The mentality here is that richer and whiter equals better. Sad to see this in Arlington, which is supposedly progressive and supportive of diversity.

That was precisely my point. They're not comparing instruction or academics. They're comparing the student body. TJ is far more diverse,[b] but has gotten "whiter" so it's inferior but improving.[/b]
