[quote=Anonymous]I agree that you'll want to talk to real people, but if that's not one of your choices, just use your judgement in terms of who you listen to online. I'm a long-time MCPS parent, and think I'm pretty clear-eyed about the school system. The big downsides are the current chaos in the Central Office, and a regrettable move away from student discipline. The upsides are that the day-to-day experience as a student and parent is still very good. My children have received an outstanding education, and have gone into each next level well-prepared. Yes, it has required some hands-on parenting in terms of encouraging them to apply to specific programs, or getting involved if there were peer or teacher challenges, but nothing insurmountable. Overall, it's still a very strong system, and it's hard to beat the commute and other quality of life indicators in close-in MoCo. [/quote]
