[quote=Anonymous]I think pretty much every PGCPS pyramid has a weakness at some point. Pretty much everyone I know who has been generally pleased with public all the way up has had kids in specialty programs for at least part of that (K-8 at either Goddard school skipping problematic MS and then testing in to ERHS for example, or TAG all the way through ERHS). I guess it depends on what you would call decent. I've known people at more than one of the Bowie pyramids who would call it generally decent throughout. Not great come HS, but decent. I hear that the Greenbelt --> Greenbelt MS --> ERHS pyramid may be improving as Greenbelt MS seems to be trending better with the new facility (which is really a great building) and the TAG center. Our former babysitter (now in college) was generally pleased with her experience in the University Park progression, but she did sci/tech at ERHS so she didn't end up at Northwestern. If decent = safe environment and some good teachers then I think there are pyramids that meet that definition. If you're looking for great test scores or great facilities or that type of thing I think it gets harder to find 3 zoned together schools that would tick off all those boxes too. [/quote]
