[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok I need some advice: my daughter attends Seabrook elementary and it is a lovely school and we are zoned for Glenarden Woods, which gets mixed reviews.  She got a 30 on the verbal/English component and an 89 on the logic/non verbal component of the OLSAT, which was bizarre.  I think if we had her retested she would get a higher score overall, but is it worth it?  Or should I try for 3rd grade?  Will it be impossible to get into Glenarden Woods in 3rd grade?  The middle school we are zoned for (Thomas Johnson) is absolutely terrible.[/quote]

I would keep her at Seabrook since you are happy there and then see how things are going.  Folks in PGCPS are always thinking 2 steps ahead and many times their plans don't work out for them because whatever school they have in their plan isn't a good fit for their kids.
I know several families who went through the hassle of TAG/French Immersion/Montessori so they have a guaranteed path to a good middle school and then realize that those programs aren't all sunshine and rainbows and they end up back at the neighborhood school.

This is what I was thinking, but at the same time I am worried about middle school (Thomas Johnson is unacceptable by my fairly low standards)..  My son is at Judith Hoyer Montessori and DD at Seabrook is happier than he is.[/quote]
