[quote=Anonymous]I posted earlier - one of the ones who's happy. I think a lot of it depends on what your expectations are as a parent. I read the other thread about the family that moved to Mass. and their kids are behind, and some of the complaints about math in that thread are beyond my grasp. I don't have any expertise in education and math was not my thing. So my ability to be critical of MCPS math is limited - basically, I'm looking to see that my kids can do the math skills expected of their age (both are in elementary) and that they are learning and progressing. I also want them to like school and learning and be happy. These are very different metrics than what some of the posters in the other thread seem to expect. Frankly, I also don't think it's cataclysmic if my MCPS kids end up behind some other kids when they get to college. Life doesn't guarantee perfect outcomes - I don't think we can expect our public school systems to provide that either. But I recognize this might be a minority view.[/quote]
