Great perspective.

The problem is you don't lay out the welcome mat and create a magnet for these types of populations in the first place. This started over 30 years ago with lack of housing enforcement and turning a blind eye and now you have entire pyramids that are overrun. Classic case is Annandale HS which has gone from a great school to average to below average in less than 15 years

Its basically too late at this point. Once the first generation comes everyone else follows suit once they come over

Almost all the schools inside the beltway are overun at this point, the Route 1 corridor is the same, and Herndon has another cluster of failure

Roughly 1/3 of Fairfax is elite at this point, the second 1/3 is fine, but the bottom 1/3 is a hellhole. If you look at the trend lines the problem is just getting worse. Part of the reason Loudoun keeps adding schools is the white flight out of FCPS. The elites living in the top 1/3 of Fairfax have no idea whats going on in the county and if things truely go south they can always go to private school. It's the middle 1/3 that has to deal with the consequences.

Wealthy people in both parties (Democrats and Republicans) send their kids to Private school or live in the area that are not affected by illegal immigration. It’s the Middle class that has to watch their schools deteriorate and watch while class sizes get larger as more and more money gets allocated to ESOL.

You mean, what you perceive as "illegal immigration". Please provide some facts to support your "boogeyman" fantasy.

FAIRFAX LARGEST UNDOCUMENTED POPULATIONS
El Salvador, Hondouras, Korea, Bolivia and Guatelmala

POPULATION: 83,000
SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES
FROM STATE FIGURES
96% of children 3 to 17
enrolled in school

CENTRAL AMERICAN MINORS

From October 1, 2015, to January 31, 2016, 24,616 families and 20,455 unaccompanied children—the vast majority from Central America—were apprehended at the southwestern US border, double the total from the same time period the year before.

205 were placed in Alexandria in 2014--13 in every 1,000 school children, the highest ratio of any jurisdiction in the country

1,023 were placed in Fairfax in 2014

A variety of other countries dominate the unauthorized immigrant population in other states. El Salvador is the leading birth country in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia.
