[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the schools are probably similar. You have to understand that MCPS is a monolithic bureaucratic cookie-cutter school system. All schools take their tests (regular subject tests, not state assessments) on the same days. There is no room or time for teachers to put their own personality or creativity into their teaching. Even the classrooms across the county all look the same--the same primary color laminated wall hangings, etc. It's more of a factory of education. [/quote] If that were true people wouldn't get all huffy about how the downcounty options are so much worse than the Ws. At the HS level there are certainly some standard assessment type things but the teachers do seem to have flexibility in how they structure their classes.[/quote]
