[quote=Anonymous]I had similar concerns but my kids have been thriving at Ashburton. Like other posters said, the school itself is huge but the classroom sizes are not any different from any other MCPS ES based on what I hear from my friends who have kids at Wyngate and KP for example. My sons usual have between 22-24 kids in their class. I feel the reading and writing curriculum in particular has gotten a lot stronger going from 2nd to 3rd grade. My kids consistently score very high on all standardized tests. The biggest place we see the downside of the large school is lunchtime. They can’t fit more than one grade in the cafeteria at a time so there’s a huge variety in when lunch is. We were lucky for several years and had a normal 12 or 12:30 lunchtime. This year my son’s lunch time is 1:45. This is quite late but they build in time for snack in the morning as a result. Like others said, the PTA is wonderful and there are many amazing PTA run events that some other ES don’t seem to have.[/quote]
