[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]New poster: in my opinion the W's and RM/Blair have fantastic teachers and a superb curriculum that cannot be found at even the top 5 privates. I know that Sidwell senior class right now only has 6 kids in their top math class and its not as good as BCC's Multivariable Calc class. Sidwell's writing and general preparation is far superior to the W schools. The issue is the class size at the W schools in addition to the general dysfunctionality at MCPS. It is one of the largest school systems in the country and very slow to respond. The W schools would benefit from my autonomy than they have right now. If you can afford it, send your kid to a top private. For college outcomes, its a crazy lottery now with test optional. SAT scores mean nothing now. Smart kids are going to UMD while others are going to Princeton via test optional. It blows my mind.
