[quote=Anonymous] Yes, there was a sex scandal at Loiederman recently. I don't recommend any of these, except perhaps the Parkland one, where the administration at least seems on top of things. The other two seem incompetent, based on their presentations in the fall for 5th grade families. You'll see at the presentation - the level of discourse compared to presentations made in our W school cluster is much lower. Please don't mistake these schools for real selective magnets (Takoma Park and Eastern), ie with an above-average cohort of students. Entrance to MSMC is by lottery, and like all such MCPS special programs, have been embedded in low-income areas to try to trigger some interest there and reinvigorate the neighborhood. I'm not saying some individual teachers aren't great. The former head of chorus at Loiederman left a few years ago to found the Strathmore Children's Chorus - he is excellent. [/quote]
