[quote=Anonymous]I have two little boys who are not school age yet (4 and 1) and I'm so sick of hearing negative things about the schools around here. It seems that all I hear from my colleagues and my kids' daycare teachers (these are all parents with school-age children who live in DC, Maryland, and Virginia) are negative experiences. Things like: expectations are too high, teachers are sub-par, parents are too involved, parents are not involved enough, all they do is take tests, teachers are great but administrators are terrible, too much pressure, the curriculum doesn't make sense, etc. I'm trying very hard to keep a positive attitude about sending my boys to school, but it's getting difficult. Can people share some positive experiences? We are in FFX county, but since I've heard negative from all school districts, positive stories from anywhere would be great! [/quote]
