    Pursuant to Va, Code ********, any "advertisement [that] contains any promise, assertion, representation or statement of fact which is untrue, deceptive or misleading, or uses any other method, device or practice which is fraudulent, deceptive or misleading to induce the public to enter into any obligation, shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor." *** is the 13th largest public school district, but has a per-pupil expenditure unparalleled by any other in the state, or any suburban district in the ***, including *************. These are the second-best public schools in the state, for that investment, the largest line item in the county budget, amounting to almost $750 million, with a quarter million dedicated to the Superintendent, the former superintendent of one of the worst in **. 90% of the school-age kids attend these public schools, in an affluent community with a median household income of $140,160, and median home value of $$864,800--not quite ********; however, the County claims "with 78% holding a bachelors degree or higher", it is the most educated municipality in ********. Yet, in this most progressive community, there are neither any men or any Blacks on the school board, and only 10.5% of non-Whites age 25 and above hold at least a baccalaureate degree. Realtors and homeowner moms who relocated here say proudly they came here for the public schools; however, in the Class of 2022, while breaking records in college applications, even though 92% of kids say they want to go to college, only a third take the SAT, and 86% of those who had applied to ******, ****** ******' **** mater failed to gain admission, only 1 of 96 got accepted to *******. Far worse, 43% failed to gain admission to 91% selective VCU. ******** is ranked sixth in the nation for learning loss, and not even one local leader sees this as a priority, focusing on respecting kids' choice of personal pronouns, participation in extracurricular sports and where a kid can use the restroom.

Arlington Public School System is NOT a BBB Accredited Business.

To become accredited, a business must agree to BBB Standards for Trust and pass BBB's vetting process.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
