[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Given the new not- challenging 2.0 curriculum in MCPS,[/b] I would advise any parent with a smart child to apply to these programs. It is a way to get your child a top notch education in the MCPS system (harder to do these days even in the well- regarded elementary schools). For us, it was HGC or private school. This is like a great private without the tuition.[/quote] Actually, I was just this very afternoon impressed that the math in the homework packet of kid #2, now in second grade, is considerably harder than the math was in the homework packet of kid #1, before 2.0. I don't agree with this "not-challenging" business.[/quote] Good news for you. You are right where you belong. Nothing wrong with that. Others may be looking for something different. Good to know there are different options for different students.[/quote]
