[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The title of your thread is kind of misleading.  The MCA didn't "demand" smaller class sizes.  It adopted a resolution urging FCPS to narrow - but not eliminate - the current differences in class sizes.

The issue has been percolating for years, but the School Board has continued to let classes in McLean, Vienna and Great Falls get larger.  Test scores remain very high, of course, but the parents see how much smaller the classes are elsewhere in FCPS, as well as in APS and FCCPS, and they feel short-changed and taken for granted.

:roll: I would love to know what the average McLean household pays in property taxes - I bet it isn't much more than my husband and I pay, and we are zoned for a title 1 school. Believe it or not, there are pockets of nice properties in other parts of the of the county.

What is your point?  Your children do not have the larger class sizes and benefit from the additional resources from the county and elsewhere. [/quote]
