[quote=Anonymous]We moved ACPS to FCPS between 6th and 7th. We had a great experience in ACPS elementary, but one year of GW was enough for me. My student had some excellent teachers at GW (and one who just stopped coming at one point) and made some great friends, but after a few administrative issues and other ACPS dysfunction, I was done. No regrets. None. It was the right move for us. The only academic issue was she went from 6th grade Honors math in ACPS to 7th grade Honors math in FCPS, which apparently is equivalent to 8th grade Honors math in ACPS so she skipped a year of math. I was worried about leaving friends behind and making new friends, but since everyone was new to the middle school in 7th grade, there was a lot of mixing of kids and new friend groups were formed. It wasn't an issue at all. Can't speak to moving before 6th and joining in the last year of elementary. [/quote]
