[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you should move to Frederick or Howard County if commute is not an issue. The schools aren't as crowded, and it all doesn't seem a little crazy. [/quote] I have friends in Frederick. Our kids are only in elementary school so I can only compare that. One big difference is that Frederick does not have a language immersion program like MCPS does. The education level seems to be the same. There doesn't seem to be more troublemakers in either school district. [/quote] We were in MoCo and are now in Frederick. Only have experiences with elementary schools so far. Overall we have been happy with the quality of education in both districts. But we are realizing that MCPS offers much more in terms of enrichment, magnets, alternative programs, and so on. Also, this may just be more school-specific - but - our daughter has special needs, and we do feel MCPS had more resources, was able to give her more supports, really going above and beyond for her. It may sound crazy, but we are seriously considering moving back to MoCo in a few years when younger kiddo starts kindergarten and older kiddo starts secondary (not just because of the schools, other reasons as well). We kinda regret leaving…[/quote]
