[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is schoolwork easy? Guess the smarter kids will get all A's then and get into better schools. Seems like a win-win if you ask me.  Also, to the Maryland comment, we love that JR starts 9am. My kids love to sleep in.  I believe the bell is at 7:30 am in Maryland Montgomery County schools.  You couldn't pay me to move there!javascript:void(0);[/quote]

Do you want your kid to be bored in school or actually challenged?
Do you want them to learn something at school? 
Only the AP classes are challenging at JR and that is assuming you have a good teacher.
My kid is taking AP Environmental Science this year and hasn’t had a teacher all year.
A really good math teacher was chased out last year by incompetent administration.
These are some of the problems you have to deal with at JR. Hard to know if the new HS will be better or not.
I keep hearing from friends at Walls that it is also slowly going downhill.
I don’t think DCPS is comfortable with anything better than mediocrity unfortunately [/quote]
