[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Our house sold after 9 days on the market (typical for our neighborhood) for the highest price since the real estate bubble[/quote]

Right but what people are noticing is that VA and DC have appreciated beyond the real estate bubble while MD is still under bubble prices. MCPS had a VERY strong reputation during the last real estate bubble. Prices soared and people spent $ further and further out. Many of the people who did this when they were just starting to have kids are in the age range that has felt 2.0 the most. For them its a double hit, the school system they bought into collapsed and the real estate recovery was sluggish as a result.

If you bought after the bubble crash and after 2.0 was rolled out, you're in a different situation. There was plenty of outrage when 2.0 rolled out and plenty of negative articles in local media about it. (Parents who had kids in upper elementary school had their kids actually knocked back two years in math to repeat things they had already learned. They were furious and now they are receiving affirmation that not only was that unnecessary but their kids were knocked back to learn a faulty way of doing math riddled with errors. ) If you spent five seconds researching MCPS back then you heard the warnings about 2.0 so there is less to complain about now.

Oh my God chicken little get over it already get over it already there a lot of people who  still live here who are weathering the storm of 2.0 who are fine with the schools working through the improvements who are happy with the house they bought who are not in financial ruin who aren't scared of poor or brown people get the F over it[/quote]
