[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]OP- many people in MCPS can't swing the cost of private. There is a lot of bitterness and denial. People want to believe that they scored a great deal on free education or don't want to believe that they wasted money moving to the burbs for a mediocre school system. There are also a lot of people who just don't care and this is fine too.[/b] MCPS isn't horrible but it doesn't provide a great learning environment. The goals and incentives are just very different for MCPS employees than they are at a private school. You are not going to change MCPS. You won't be able to influence anything and you are basically at their whims because in the end they aren't accountable to the students or the parents.

And then there are the people who do care and who are satisfied with the education their child is getting in MCPS.

OP, if you don't like your child's kindergarten class, then certainly consider private school, if that's an option for you. You might be happier at the Washington Waldorf school in Bethesda, for example. Just don't conclude that you know all about all of MCPS, based on your one child's four months in one kindergarten class in one elementary school. Also don't conclude, like the PP, that people who say that they are satisfied with MCPS must be either jealous liars or useless slackers.[/quote]
