[quote=Anonymous]To OP:

Every school system is going the bare minimum because they are all understaffed and under budgeted. However: if you do the work to get your kid to master skills at home, it will be substantially better than doing nothing at all.

And the teachers know and see the difference.

So if you want some kind of magical school experience, I will say that it’s really up to you to make school a priority and make your kids take responsibility for their work at an early age. A lot of parents here like to blame the schools for every problem but the reality is that outside of the abysmal special Ed situation here, FCPS schools are way ahead of the curve but that doesn’t mean your kids will be geniuses because of the school.

As for the special Ed situation: I’m glad to hear that one parent actually took their kid out and placed them in private. I honestly personally believe that the large class sizes are detrimental to kids who have sensory issues but teachers can’t tell you that. In fact, I think a lot of the bad experiences are really just because legally they can’t say that to your face and tell you to send your kid to private school.
