[quote=Anonymous]I just watched my two stepsons go through MCPS DCC schools. One school sucked all around. Writing instruction next to nonexistent, math/science teachers sucked, social studies seemed ok. One school was great at STEM, ok with social studies, terrible with writing instruction. Not sure if BCC is better. From the stories I hear about DCPS, I DO think MCPS is more functional. Like, my kids got into the right classes in high school. The right math class, the right science class, etc. I have heard crazy things about kids at Wilson /JR getting put in math classes they already took, the wrong level foreign level, and it taking weeks to get it worked out. I think stuff like that does not happen as much in MCPS. But is the teaching better? Don't know. If you only have one kid and you like where you live, I'd aim for private for high school. If you can't afford it, you might be able to get some aid.[/quote]
