I am torn between CMIT South and pushing through with my neighborhood middle school. In my search and talking to others it seems like middle school is a very hard transition and not many great options. I have heard of a few transfers to Bowie middle schools and have been happy and the rest of the families that i have talked with seem to choose catholic Schools since they are a little cheaper in tuition than privates. Not much help unfortunately.

OP here... CMIT was more tech heavy than where my daughter is or wants to go.

I encourage you to check out Friends Community School in College Park, where both my kids attend/attended middle school-- although we live in Montgomery County.
