[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll bite. If you want your kid pushed from the school, skip public education and pay for private. [/quote]
I don't know what you actually mean but private schools in this area are inferior to MCPS. Only a few can compare to MCPS.[/quote]

Seriously? My kid went to silver creek and was given sentence starters as their only source of writing. He had an A in math because he could retake anything until he got an A and the teacher point blank told me he was a C in math kinda kid, but that was only when I pushed her for the info.

He’s now at private. There is Hw, quizzes, and tests. He’s actually learning how to study. I think he’ll be better served for high school than had we stayed in MCPS.

The question OP asked was whether mcps pushes kids. And quite frankly, they don’t. [/quote]
private schools also have a vested interested in not letting the kids flunk a class.  The class sizes are smaller, and you are paying for the hand holding. So yes, if your kid can't hack it in a large public, then private is the way to go.

My kid's HS really encourages all the kids to take the most rigorous courses, including AP courses.[/quote]

That’s a bunch of bull. The better and only good privates do NOT hand hold. [/quote]
