[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] That's a nice statement, but it just isn't accurate. Talk to your friends about the curriculum, number of students in the classroom, and facilities --no comparison between even the "best" schools in the city and the schools in the county. Mt. Washington, which is consistently touted here as a wonderful school doesn't even have a playground for its K-2 school. Classes are overcrowded at RP, Mt. Washington, and other "good" schools because the community can't fill the classroom, so kids are bussed in until the class is deemed "full."[/quote] I tend to agree with others who say Roland Park and Mount Washington are good schools. I have relatives attending both and their parents are more than satisfied. You still failed to address the important point, do kids from Roland Park and Mount Washington with decent parents end up in a similar place in life as kids going to privates or to schools in the count? I think this was an interesting point raised. If they do all tend to end up in a similar place then issues of class size etc. are kind of moot. Do you know of academically inclined Roland Park or Mount Washington kids who were unable to get accepted into competitive colleges? I only happen to know one graduate of Roland Park and they are currently excelling at Hopkins. Here is a link to the Baltimore crime map the city has plenty of crime, but in Roland Park there does not appear to be a problem http://www.baltimorepolice.org/your-community/crime-map Am I missing something here?[/quote] Yes you are, you are missing the point that it's not just the destination, it's the journey to getting there.
