[quote=Anonymous]Hi, OP.  We raised our children in Arlington public schools and one of them is now a teacher there.  I would not worry about which Arlington school your child goes to -- they ALL offer an excellent education and with involved parents like you you will have nothing to worry about.

Pay no attention to "reviews" or "ratings."  What matters is the quality of the school system as a whole and the qualification and experience of the teachers.  Arlington is committed to education and some of the schools with the lowest "ratings" or "rankings" have those scores only because the schools have fewer rich kids than other schools in the county and these school actually end up getting more attention and help from the system than the richer schools.

While you may believe this is a helpful website, and in many ways it can be, it also attracts too many rich and white people who are afraid to send their kids to schools with kids who have different backgrounds than them.

You absolutely DID pick the right school system.  Your child will be taken good care of.  Focus on the neighborhood in Arlington that you can best afford and do not worry about which school it happens to be located in.

Good luck! [/quote]
