[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Parents in Bethesda have very high expectations. Not saying that parents in Gaithersburg don't, but it is evident in Bethesda by the complaints you say you have noticed.[/quote] I was wondering how long it would take for this argument to show up. PP in Gaithersburg, the parents in Bethesda just know better! They know better about their kids' schools, and they know better than you about your kid's school, too. [/quote] I’m not that poster but if people paid a premium for property in what they were told/supposed/saw in test scores were better schools and don’t feel like those schools are good, why shouldn’t they complain? It’s also not unreasonable to think that the areas with a higher SES may place a higher value on education for whatever reason. I don’t live in Bethesda and I am happy with MCPS. That said, in some ways it’s no different than private. If I paid a lot more to send my kid to private and I wasn’t happy, I would certainly complain. No different than people who moved to Bethesda for the schools - paying a lot more for their house than those in Gaithersburg - and aren’t happy. Not sure why that is so complicated.[/quote]
