[quote=Anonymous]I have one recent graduate and one high schooler. We also vaguely considered private school as the oldest was entering kindergarten but decided to give ACPS a try - and have not regretted our decision. I agree with the other ACPS parent that safety issues are exaggerated - my kids have never felt unsafe in school. And while they have suffered through some bad teachers, they have also learned from some truly amazing and dedicated teachers. My college student - now at an ivy league school - does not feel academically unprepared or inferior to the kids who went private. Also, the ACHS experience - going to school with kids from extremely different backgrounds and life experiences - is not to be underestimated in terms of preparing you for the real world.[/quote]
