[quote=Anonymous]The entire PGCPS system has struggled with middle class flight from the schools. I think a lot of this is due to negative perception of the county schools that isn't always grounded in reality. The perception issue is improving many areas, but lots of middle class families go private. I would guess that is part of what is at play here. Also, for the record, Capital Heights ES is a great school - TAG center and dual immersion Spanish program. They just put on an excellent black history month school-wide program. And its predominantly black and has a sizable low income population. But it really shines - strong principal and PTA, dedicated teachers and a small inclusive environment. I think we'd all be wise to check our preconceived ideas about our schools. [/quote]
