[quote=Anonymous]Your info is wrong. Yorktown is an 8 on GS, W-L is a 5, and Wakefield is a 4. Schools with GS ratings of 5 rarely have a "great reputation" within or outside an entire jurisdiction. They may have a lot of boosters, which is good, but a different thing. And housing prices are definitely lower in the South Lakes district than in adjacent parts of the Madison and Marshall districts. You could chalk some of that up to location, but homes in the Madison district literally declined tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of dollars in value when they were reassigned to South Lakes a few years ago. We'll see if the same thing happens in Arlington when APS starts moving kids around in a few years to deal with overcrowding at W-L and the under-enrollment at Wakefield. I know it would give me pause. [/quote]
