[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Finally, if your kid is in grad school, his MCPS experience is so dated that it’s irrelevant. [/quote]

No, I don’t think so. If you prefer private, for whatever reason, please have at it.  But others have found MCPS to offer everything they need and want.  It’s really just personal preference.

And plenty of MCPS grads are at Ivy and equivalent grad schools.  Don’t kid yourself.[/quote]

Grad schools have so many cash cow programs that that means nothing, unless you can show me that they’re in the programs that are actually impressive, as opposed to the programs riding on the Ivy League school’s name alone. Show me the stats for med school and PhD programs. Law school, outside of Yale, only tells me a kid had a high undergrad GPA and is good at standardized tests.

I work in higher ed, as does my husband. I’ve run degree programs. I know what’s under the hood at these schools.

And everyone knows MCPS has gone down the tubes since Curriculum 2.0 and especially COVID. So timing is hugely relevant. [/quote]
