[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been a parent and teacher at both schools. There are some incredible teachers, students, and families. That said, teacher morale is very low for those that have remained. This is primarily to administrators and how they run things/treat teachers. Grade inflation is rampant as that is what some parents demand. There is a place for your child to excel and to be challenged and successful at each school. However, it is getting harder for colleges to discern the difference between that child and another who is not at that level. To be fair, this is happening at most schools. I would argue [b]Potomac provides a better academic experience but the students struggle more with mental health issues. [/b]Flint Hill lost the LS and US head last year and the head of school will be leaving this next year, so I suspect there will be a lot of change in vision in the near future. [/quote] I've heard this from multiple families. The kids are pushed so hard, they break. So sad.[/quote]
