[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids attended FCPS from K-6 and K-4. They're now in a charter in a different state. The new school is leagues beyond FCPS. I understand why people would choose private schools in the DMV. FCPS is quite honestly a terrible school system, and my kids learned very little there. [/quote] I agree 100%![/quote] FCPS did fine by my kids - one has a high-paying tech job on the West Coast and the younger is in a Top 10 grad school program in their field. But from everything I've read the decline in recent years has been pronounced. Obviously the fact that the current FCPS leadership and School Board spend most of their time talking about "equity" and next to no time talking about "academics" isn't very reassuring. [/quote]
