[quote=Anonymous]Beall is the example that I often think about when I mention a parent noting a night and day difference in the quality of instruction for her kids after moving to another school within MCPS. Where Beall was an example of an excellent school in teaching kids. At the new school, the person mentioned that she found that she had to spend a lot more time in going over things compared to when her older child was in the same grade at Beall. But it might just be a difference between the siblings and how they do in school as well. Hearing this experience kind of confirmed my thoughts about how choosing a good schools is important because they're not all the same. Same thing when it comes to rigors and grading. ie there are examples of students who get 4.0s in AP and honors classes but don't do well in the SATs and AP exams. But the person that I have min mind might have been a bad test taker. But I've heard good things about Beall from multiple sources. As others mentioned, once you start getting into middle school and high school it might be more of a mixed bag.[/quote]
