[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Moved my 14yo to FL from MCPS two years ago. Plenty of IB programs and AP classes options, incredible liberal arts and very competitive sports programs. 10 minutes drive to one of the prettiest Gulf Coast beaches. Mild winters and very tolerable summers. 
Yes, locals are less educated in general, but also more inclusive and less judgmental than what DMV population has become in the past 10 years.

There are pros and cons like with any decision you make.

I have no regrets.

Third here. 
I am glad I am raising kids outside the liberal “bubble” and closer to real life. That is an education in itself. I have decided that not all education needs to be in the classroom- it is also about what I show them about life outside of school, the conversations I have with them at home, the people  i exposé them to and the vacations we take to places that show them how life is different elsewhere.  In Florida I am able to afford to give them a lot more than I would when I lived in Alexandria. And anyway on here I hear Fairfax schools have had a lot to complain about the last few years anyway.
