[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you would be feeding into Chevy Chase, your child would be "competing" with children in some of the very best Moco elementary schools. His testing level is par-for-the-course for these schools (and these kids have been getting math and science instruction that far surpasses what the local privates offer). So, good news, bad news: even if he can't get into the HGC program, he'll be in good hands and get far better instruction than you're used to. The secret is that any of these elementary schools will offer your child a more robust program than you are used to. If you need to reapply next year, I wouldn't worry.[/quote] Sorry but I'm not impressed with the math and science education my child is receiving in 3rd grade MCPS. I that really your idea of robust? Will try Hail Mary to HGC, then look at privates. [/quote] My kid is in a 4th grade HGC this year. I've been reasonably impressed so far, but they concentrate a lot more on the math side of things than the science.[/quote]
