Well, that's not working well. Sorry.

I'm not sure what happened with that link. Let's try again.

They don't. DC1 has several in his AAP class and we're at the center.

Yes not all, but a significant majority do.

Although we all make our own evaluations of schools/neighborhoods, I personally, would not send my kids to Crestwood. Many of the Springfield schools are excellent. And Crestwood's teachers may be doing a great job, but the population of students is going to affect the over-all experience. 61% eligible for free meals, 62% hispanic, 12 %caucasion.

This just makes me so sad that we have schools like this in the NoVA area. I don't know how to fix it, but it seems ridiculous to have these things concentrated in just a few schools when other nearby schools have such drastically different demographics.

well that is because if we started to rezone to spread out low income and ESOL students, something that would benefit all kids, parents of kids in the high income school would lose their sh*t. Look at Arlington. Total divide in how their high school are zoned.

SOL scores don't tell you how well a school it performing or how good or dedicated the teachers are. All those scores tell you is which school had a higher population of ESOL and low income kids. Take any school with low scores and switch out the student population with kids from say haycock and guess what, that school would instantly have high scores.

Chesterbrook is excellent and the AAP students all stay. It is one of the few schools that is all single family homea. It almost feels like a private school.

Why did someone bump up a 5 year old thread with info that is no longer current?
