I actually don't think so.
The W's are equal to the [u]top privates[/u] but they both (W's & privates ) are way behind the Magnets. [/quote]

New PP chiming in. I have had several children go through Churchill cluster schools. High school standards were not what I had as an MCPS student and school standards in the elementary and middle school were lowered from 2.0. I toured the privates close to our house - Georgetown Prep (Catholic) and Bullis (non religious) - and I was amazed at their class offereings and resources. If you can swallow the price tag, these two schools are far beyond anything in MCPS. [/quote]
You are definitely dreaming and delusional. 
No private schools in the area can match the Magnets. 
Only the top privates are equal to the W's. Bullis is not one of them[/quote]

Have you visited Bullis? My child's abilities exceeded what the W schools could provide. Bullis even had classes for him that was not available at any MCPS school thanks to their STEM program and new science building.

If your child is happy with a magnet school, then good for you. Our experience, a private looked at the whole child and offered him courses based on his needs. Public told us that he exceeded what they offered and they could not have classes for 1 child. He would have had to be dual enrolled at MC versus having a class with a teacher at a private. [/quote]
Again,  what has your kid and Bullis done in Math and Science? 
When it comes to STEM,  Bullis does not even register on the radar.
