[quote=Anonymous]We struggled with the size of the individual schools in our cohort, but the county MCPS model made things worse. Both my DH and I went to public through HS, but our town was in charge of school oversight so it felt much more connected to the families. For example, if we had a snowday it was it was actually snowing in the area by our school--not some far off part of the county. Covid and MCPS's inability to manage the massive number of students really drove home the "too big to govern" point. We have been impressed with how our private responds to concerns and the teachers really know our kids so they are both pushed and supported. We also no longer have the disruptive kid who the teacher can't discipline problem anymore. [/quote]
