That's sad even by APS standards.

He was pulled into a small OG group for 4th and 5th grade.
Let me guess: Ashlawn or a lottery school.
I would guess ATS.
No. A neighborhood school in N Arlington.
So name it. It’s absolutely not McKinley.
Not Nottingham.

JUST NAME THE SCHOOL! You’re praising them, it’s fine. Parents might need to know if their school is the one that is going to help their kid or if they need to go private. There is zero reason for you to hoard the name of your school .
In N. Arlington I've only heard Ashlawn, ATS, and Tuckahoe so any good for kids with dyslexia. upthread I listed the schools that do not do good for kids with dyslexia.
That poster is either at a lottery school or is a principal at an embattled N. ARL school. Or a person who doesn't really know what they are talking about.

+100. This PP is so bizarre to keep the name of this supposedly superior school a secret.

Sadly this is 100% correct.
