[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up here and FCPS was never the land flowing with milk and honey that many newcomers believe it to be. It has always had these issues. [/quote] +1 I'm always amused by this "world-class" reputation Fx. Co. schools has. I also grew up here and while the schools were fine, they were never [b]that [/b]great. I'm sure there are better school systems that manage to cut out a lot of the waste and unnecessary programs FCPS continues to pay for. [/quote] It's an affluent, resource-rich, and organized school system, especially for its size and challenges. I received a great education, went on to a good college, and have a well-paying job. FCPS is certainly not perfect, but I feel that it served me (and from what I can tell, my peers, several of whom now teach for the county) well. The accolades didn't come from nowhere. What exactly do you feel is lacking that other systems do better? The major complaints I read on this board are AAP-related.[/quote]
