[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two kids - zoned for Churchill.  Both in private for different reasons.  The smaller classes require them to be attentive and present, which makes such a difference in their ability to actually retain information.  MCPS high schools have gotten too big and way too easy to disappear into the noise.  I don't have a reference point to compare Churchill academics to my kids education, but their elementary & middle school learning has far exceeded MCPS.   [/quote]

No being sarcastic, I’m just wondering how that could be? I send my child to a top school in DC and it’s not much better academically and actually in some ways worse than what was being taught at mcps. I cannot understand what these schools are because as I already stated my child attends a top one but people on here say they are getting better education than mcps. I am so skeptical of that. In reality, I’m paying for the smaller class size and nicer facility. Nothing more. [/quote]

Sorry but the days of academic rigor at MCPS is over.  The bar has been set way low due to covid.  I was just talking to a Churchill mom about this tonight.  She just shrugs her shoulders and accepts what it is.  The private schools that stayed open are way way ahead of MCPS.  Wait till you see the detail on the test scores coming out of MCPS...it is frightening.[/quote]
