[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would argue that the science curriculum is much stronger at their parochial school than an MCPS, which is a joke. Also, the language arts, writing and humanities are much stronger in the private schools. I will say that the kids at MCPS are further along in math, however, most of them do not have great foundational skills, and this comes and hurts them later on. I believe MCPS parents want to believe that their kids are getting a good education, but I can assure you, starting in middle school, that is rarely the case. I also think if you look at the college attrition list even the better public schools, W Schools, at MCPS have gone down recently in terms of the schools kids have been getting into and the number of kids that used to get into play top universities. [/quote] I agree that public schools don't teach writing well. We use a private tutor. [/quote]
