[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, from a parochial to FCPS. I have found FCPS a better fit for my kids in every way. I didn't hate the parochial, but didn't find it superior academically, didn't find the teachers to be better (and in some cases, worse), and the small size and lack of a range of different activities was disappointing. If I could go back in time we would have never done parochial, but at least I know the grass is not always greener.[/quote] I'm probably switching DS from parochial to public MS next year for similar reasons, plus inconsistent or unpredictable homework schedule which makes it difficult to plan around travel sports some days. On the other hand, I want DS to have homework so I'm concerned he will have too little in public MS or less rigor. I also consider grading, especially in writing and religion classes, to be subjective (teachers' pets all As) and discipline applied inconsistently to boys, sometimes for very minor infractions..[/quote]
