[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW, my child goes to an MCPS elementary school that looks mediocre on paper. High poverty, low test scores. Lots of folks in the neighborhood send their kids to private schools. I didn't know what to expect, but we have been so pleased with the MCPS school. I attended MCPS schools in Bethesda/Chevy Chase 10+ years ago, and I have to say, the Title I school my kid is in now is so much better than the schools I attended. Great teachers, and even all the admins and support staff know the kids by name and seem genuinely interested in them. Low student-teacher ratio, newly-renovated building, etc., etc. Couldn't be more pleased.[/quote] If you don't mind, which school is this? I am also located in an area that is known for "bad" schools (low ratings on Great Schools) and my husband and I are freaking out...we don't know what to do and whether we should sell our house and move to an area with "better" schools or if we should stick it out here and take our chances or if we should homeschool (!!!). We are in Aspen Hill, what area are you in?[/quote]
