[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are thinking of going private for middle school for our son. He is bright (accepted into CES program at MCPS) and we live in northern-ish Montgomery County. DS is a very sweet kid, not outgoing or particularly talented in sports. Would prefer to stay in MoCo due to the commute. Any suggestions?[/quote] You need to figure out much of a commute for private you and your kid are willing to tolerate, even if it's only for three years, and what your realistic public option is. (Assuming your kid is in a CES now, you know that the county has moved to a lottery for the criteria-based MS magnets.). If it were me and "northern-ish Montgomery County" were Clarksburg, it would take a really compelling private option to make me want to go even as far as Potomac. But even Rockville to NW DC could be become a real drag without a school bus. [/quote]
