[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I can afford it, I would go private. After being with FCPS we have noticed a few consistent issues -

1. Teacher to student ratio matters and private school teachers has more time to pay attention to your child.
2. Glasgow has a great reputation on being a center school but once again you are only looking at your child spending more time working through more homework and a slightly challenging curriculum. The private school teacher in the other hand would help much better with fundamental topics and pay more attention.

What are your concerns? [/quote]

If private schools are better than FCPS academically, why FCPS schools have all better numbers?
(TJ accepted students, college accepted students, math & science Olympiad...)[/quote]

Two reasons. 1. The parents who send their kids to FCPS  are highly educated. 2. Parents spend time and money on external classes because they are saving money by not going private.

You really need to ask the same question other way around. Why are so many private schools in business? Obviously high HHI parents know the difference and they care less about TJ.

I have been to two private schools for business reasons and I can confidently tell you the quality of teachers and attention to students are far more superior than FCPS classes full of 27 children per class. [/quote]
