[quote=Anonymous]I graduated from ACPS (admittedly, 20 years ago now) and I’ve been a teacher there for a while. I think that I got a good education and that most typical kids can, too, if they are motivated. Lots of kids from ACPS go on to good colleges, including Ivies. I went to a top state school and did well. Yes, there have been some concerning incidents at the schools, but if your kid stays out of the drama, they will be fine. I wouldn’t worry about ACPS if your kid is neurotypical and generally well behaved. However, I have a completely different opinion when it comes to serving kids with special needs. I have taught an inclusion class for years and I’m disturbed by how under resourced special education services are and the way kids with behavior problems and learning issues are tracked together all day. My own kid has significant disabilities, and there was no way I was sending them to ACPS. We moved out of the district.[/quote]
