[quote=Anonymous]Not so easy for me to answer. We were in DCPS and moved to MCPS so that oldest DC would have access to magnets/centers. At the time, it was clear that MCPS was superior in terms of GT/accelerated offerings, particularly in elementary. Now, I can see that my youngest child will not have the acceleration opportunities that my oldest had, even though youngest is smarter at math. For example, youngest will now only be able to get to Algebra in 8th grade in MCPS. However, if we go back to DCPS, youngest could have accelerated math so that he could do Algebra in 7th grade at Deal MS. Our old DCPS elementary now says that it differentiates, which it didn't do when we were there. I'm not sure what that means in the DCPS school, but since it is clear that MCPS is no longer differentiating at the elementary level (unless you get into an HGC), we will have to reconsider why we are in MoCo, as school was the only reason we moved.
