[quote=Anonymous]We knew lots of kids who moved to parochial school in elementary and middle. While there was more homework, the parents openly stated it was to take the academic pressure off that was present in our MCPS elementary school. A few also stated they moved for the stricter discipline. None mentioned it being tougher academically. So I don’t think your kids will be behind. My son went from pubic to private (not parochial) and back to public. He was only behind in writing. The private school had very high standards for essay writing. We moved him in large part due to the better writing curriculum so this came as zero surprise. [/quote]
