[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of Montgomery County.  People used to move to Montgomery County for the schools, which have been in a downward spiral for about 10 years. With no businesses moving into the county, and the only thing being built are retirement homes and retail on the bottom/condos on the top style units, there won't be enough income taxes to pay for county serviced. This means schools will continue their downward spiral, traffic will continue to get worse, etc, etc[/quote]

As long as the feds keep their offices downtown--and nobody thinks they'll move out of DC--MoCo will be an attractive place to live and commute in 2x a week.[/quote]

The data on Montgomery county schools say otherwise and most of the issues we see today are the same issues impacting neighboring counties.[/quote]

I found the schools to be fantastic. At least my kids have been in magnets the entire way through. So many great opportunities for anyone who wants to learn, and the magnets consistently outperform TJ at least in every matchup I've seen.[/quote]

I feel the same way and my kids attend lower-rated schools. The elementary school was fabulous. Middle school is okay but now that my oldest is in High School (this is a school in "ganglandia" as DCUM refers to it), I realize that this is where MoCo really shines. The availability of programs at the high school level is simply top-notch. There is no doubt if a child wants to succeed, they absolutely can at MCPS- and I say this as someone who can't stand MCPS central office. [/quote]
