[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My youngest is at College Gardens, and we've been pleased. I have friends with kid at Beall, and they love it.

Now that my older kid are in middle and high school, I've generally been happy with Julius West and Richard Montgomery, as well. I think middle school is the weak point in American education in general, but JW does as good a job as a school can with that often-troublesome age group.

Some people will refuse to consider Richard Montgomery if their kids aren't in the IB magnet program, but my eldest chose not to apply to the magnet, and she's thriving. She's taking a robust schedule of AP classes and has a great group of friends who are similarly serious about their education.[/quote]

NP here. I have a child at CGES. It makes me happy to read these comments on JW and RM. JW is so large that the idea of a school that large sort of freaks me out. Our child has a couple of Learning Disabilities, which CGES staff has been good about making accommodations on. Not perfect, but I know I can get help whenever I bring it up. We'll be headed over to JW in a couple of years.

I also very much love Rockville's Rec program/sports leagues and camps. We've done the camps the last few years - such a bargain and high quality, too. We've debated moving to NoVa (my job is there; DH mainly works @ client sites - at least are in FFX). But I simply love Rockville.
