[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Churchill cluster is safest bet.  Not too much they can do there to bus kids...they would need to bus extremely far to end up in a "bad" school.[/quote]

Yeah, but then you're living in Potomac. Is that worth it?[/quote]

I think people should mostly live where they want to live - commute, neighborhood, amenities, urbanization, etc.  No public school is right/perfect for every kid.  You still might have a kid who needs smaller classes or a more individualized pace or whatever.  And almost everyone I've talked to likes their MCPS school - whatever realtors/DCUM may think of it.  Live where you want to live, go to your local school.  If you don't think it's serving your child well, look at a possible change.  It's kind of impossible to know from the outside whether the school is a good fit for your kid.  Especially because they are all MCPS so they don't officially differentiate themselves in any particular way.  They all have mostly the same policies, procedures, curriculum, etc.  [/quote]

Sure, but....

What about middle and high school?  I would be concerned about where those elementary school kids end up for high school.  Sure, the elementary school could be just fine, but if it feeds into Gaithersburg, I would have some serious reservations.[/quote]
