[quote=Anonymous]Pre-k/K is a little early to notice it, but, by 5th or 6th grade, you will see that some DCPS schools are about a year ahead of schools in other parts of the country, as far as math subjects go. The problem, though, is the kids are only touching on the more difficult math subjects. So, while your kid may be taking algebra before those kids in the suburbs, he/she would have a really tough time if he/she transferred - too many holes. However, their reading and writing will be solid - with all the emphasis on nonfiction nowadays, these kids are learning to write better than their counterparts in other areas.[/quote]
