[quote=Anonymous]Another Twinbrooker getting into the conversation a little late. Just wanted to give a bit of clarification on the school. My daughter has been in the school for five years. The statements about the principal are correct. In general, she is a poor communicator and overly fixated on test scores to the exclusion of other important issues. However, last year parents made an uproar about the poor communication from the administration and several changes were made by MCPS, including a new vice principal. Since then, there have been several positive changes, including better discipline, which had been a huge problem previously ignored by the administration. Most of the teachers do not like the principal, but the new vice principal is more popular. Despite issues with teacher retention, my daughter’s teachers have been wonderful, and she has been appropriately accelerated. The small class sizes make a big difference, as does the Title I money for the many specialists including reading, math, and science. Overall, I am glad we decided to stay at Twinbrook rather than move or pay for private school. [/quote]
