[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would pick Lemon Road any day over the schools that are zoned for their AAP center. Just compare test scores...[/quote]

Easy to get better test scores when you take the better students from the zoned schools.

It's kinda like being in 1st place and beating the 2nd place team in baseball - not only do you improve yourself, you also hurt the competition with one fell swoop.[/quote]

[b]Yes.  I think most AAP centers have really high test scores for that reason.[/quote][/b]

And if there were any correlation between high scores in AAP elementary school and success in life, this might actually matter. [/quote]

Too bad certain parents refuse to believe the obvious.[/quote]

I agree wholeheartedly with this - besides safety (which isn't a concern at any FCPS in the neighborhoods I've lived in), I really don't think ES matter all that much.  My kids will get high test scores no matter the teachers and school because of my household.

Unfortunately, a lot of parents refuse to believe the obvious and this impacts me... as a homeowner.  I want strong local schools because it directly helps my property value.  I contribute time, effort and money to my PTA not to help my kid but to try and help the kids who are straddling the fail/no fail zone on the SOLs.  I'm doing this because I'm economically self interested.  [/quote]
