[quote=Anonymous]We're in DC and at a charter. I'm concerned about the long term pathway for the school and we're debating a move to Takoma Park or Silver Spring, preferably in bound for Blair High School. DC seems academically inclined and is above or on grade level, but probably not a candidate for the MCPS magnets. Though it's hard to really know because I question whether the charters are less rigorous, so above grade level in DC would be on grade level in another school district.

Part of our decision is losing the language immersion component, and also comparing elementary school quality. I'd like to stay as long as "possible" (i.e., through elementary) to keep the language going, but not if DC will get behind academically and need to play catch up once we move. Financially it would also be nice to put off the move a few more years. If you made a similar move - when did you move; from what school to what school; and were your kids behind or ahead in any areas? Would you do it the same or differently if you could do it again?[/quote]
