[quote=Anonymous]We live in a lower performing public schools area, so at this point, we have one child in an area independent -- still in early elementary school. I know that class sizes are bigger at the public schools, but I didn't know that they could be as big as over 30 kids, as I've read on DCUM and other places. Are the larger classes in elementary on up in all area publics? Or just in high school? Or mostly in the less desirable districts or local pyramids? Even if your kid is attending a great or highly-ranked school in Fairfax or Montgomery counties, if the classes are large, how can that not take away from the learning experience? What is the optimal class size even when it comes to learning and social development? [/quote]
