[quote=Anonymous]New Poster here. Alexandria has historically been an urban area which included more low income people. Whereas the surrounding areas only became more populated once white flight began. Alexandria has its unique history to deal with in addressing educational issues. The reasons the surrounding counties are often "better" is that the were populated as a result of racism after desegregation occurred. However, as gentrification continues and housing stock deteriorates in the suburbs, the outlying areas should become less desirable and Alexandria should improve. If the economy really takes off, it is probably only 10 or 15 years. TC Williams may be a great school if you have a child in Pre-K now. [/quote]
