hate to burst your JKLM/M bubble, but minus the pricey real estate, helicopter Moms, and rabid fund raising, it's still just plain ol DCPS curriculum, which isn't much to brag about.

Let me guess; your kid goes to Cooper, sells or buys drugs, is in a class of 50 kids and you think it's a great school because FCPS says so?

Then they are the ones whose residence is OOB, but who have an IB apartment that gets them in.

Doesn't Mann have autonomy from DCPS as far as their curriculum goes? That's what the principal said at the open house...

Yes, Key and Janney do, too. That poster doesn't know what she is talking about.

Great. What does this autonomous curriculum consist of?

Nope. DC resident. Sent my kid to DCPS until I just couldn't take the lousy curriculum any more.

Because Mann isn't a feeder school for Deal, most people won't even consider it, no matter its test scores and reputation.--Janney and Lafayette are much better alternatives. I'm in bounds for Janney, btw.

Whatever. Hope you''re enjoying your crushing debt for private school when your dd spends her weekends at bj parties at the homes of rich parents who are away in Europe for "business trips" and the like. We DCPS parents will just be here enjoying life, supplementing our kids education with extra-curriculars that you can no longer afford since you have chosen to spend your life trying to keep up with the 1%ers Jonses.

Catholic School, quite affordable, few of the parents are rich, not one in the 1%. But the curriculum is excellent. And the extracurriculars are included.

many schools fit this description. The point is, get over your "best of the bunch" when the bunch isn't that great to begin with.
