I have to admit, I kinda of agree with this, it's been going downhill for sometime now.  Lived in the County (moved last year) for 30 years and raised my DC there.  There's a lot about MC that is now firmly in the "good old days" book of life and that includes the schools.  To go from number one in the country to where's my curriculum is just beyond sad and I don't see them doing anything of any true value to right the ship.  The reason we left was that we were seeing a decline (although subtle) in property values and watching the majority of those living in our neighborhood using private schools, at elementary school age.  While a good number of people I know used private school for high school, it was almost never done in the lower grades and that was a big factor in us deciding to leave when we did, to keep the value we had created in our property and get out before we lost money.  The naysayers can say what they will but when the majority of your neighbors are using private over public (and most had to sacrifice to do so) then there is obviously something seriously wrong with the public school program.

Exact opposite happened in my neighborhood. But if you moved, why are you still lurking on forums? You seem out of touch.[/quote]
