[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone have a kid go through Einstein and another go through Northwood? Curious about the difference in experiences there. [/quote]

No, I knew someone who transferred from Northwood to Einstein and found a better fit socially, but I also know many happy at Northwood.  [b]The choice process makes it possible for a family to have kids at two different HSs but in practice I think that only happens when there's a magnet or application program involved for one and the other child goes to their base school.  So, there may be almost no one who could answer this question[/b].  I know families with Blair/Northwood or Wheaton/Northwood split and haven't heard about stark contrasts.  I'm a Blair parent, but MS friends who went to the other schools seem to have similar experiences to ours.  Don't know anyone at Kennedy, our MS didn't feed there.[/quote]

I know someone who is in the Northwood cluster but whose second DC chose Einstein over Northwood in the DCC choice process.  Both kids were happy with their schools and both went on to great colleges (and beyond).[/quote]

What are reasons a student would prefer Einstein over Northwood (or vice versa)? The (apparently non-existent) academies or friends or ???[/quote]

It really makes little difference. MCPS schools are basically the same.[/quote]
