[quote=Anonymous]DCPS is not particularly great with advanced kids (in our experience, for math), especially in elementary school. It gets better for some middle schools - see PP whose kid is in Alg 2 in 8th grade at Deal. I don't think math advancement is good in most of DC (private or public schools). The STEM magnets (Takoma Park etc) in MoCo do a better job. Anecdotally, I believe that privates do a good job with encouraging advanced kids in arts and humanities and perhaps provide more opportunities in science. DC does have SWW as a test-in school, while TJ, Blair and others are the best in the country. I am afraid, it is out of school supplementation if you are stuck in DCPS/NWDC for other reasons.[/quote]
