[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sherwood has slightly higher SAT scores and a higher graduation rate 95%. Rockville graduation rate is about 89%. Suspension rates are similar. Rockville is more diverse and also has a higher percentage of lower income kids.

I don't know the culture of either school. [b]Sherwood always struck me as more rural,[/b] and Rockville as more urban. I know kids from both and all are lovely.   I'd be fine sending my kids to either one, although I have a preference for Rockville and a more urban feel. I would be more concerned with elementary and middle schools if your kids are still young. There's a lot of variation in quality at that level, IMO.[/quote]

This makes me laugh!

The two acres you see are surrounding homes worth more than $1m.   all developed on FORMER farmland . . .

And I don't think Harris Teeter and Panera would survive in the sticks.

LOL!!!![/quote]

I'm the one who posted that. But I'm not sure I get your point. Million dollar homes don't make a neighborhood urban.   The kids I know who go to this school are lovely, like I said.   But culturally, they are more rural. [b]They own guns, go hunting, etc.[/b] That's all I meant.[/quote]

My child goes to Sherwood and I don't know anyone that would fit the above bolded description. [/quote]
