[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you like your current DCPS, I don’t know why you would move to MCPS - I think MCPS is stronger for middle and high school, but the upper NW DCPS are better for ES, especially Mann where the parents each pay $1,500 to hire extra aides and have much lower ratios. This is not allowed to happen one MCPS, where you will therefore find much worse ratios.[/quote] We moved to McPS from DCPS and feel we made a good decision. My kid has had far smaller classes in his time at Somerset than my friend’s kids at Janney where classes approach 28. Mann might be a different case. And while it’s true that there are no FT aides in McPS, they have reading resource teachers and other special services daily. Plus if your kid is well above grade level, there are enriched curricular material that the teachers use, from kindergarten on.[/quote]
