[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is in 8th in DCC and so we'll do the whole choice program. I've heard folks' impression of the other schools, but not much about Einstein. What do people like and not like about it? Please only from parents who actually have experience or have friends with kids there. I see a lot of faulty assumptions about the down county schools in general, so I'd really like to hear what people who REALLY know it think. Thanks.[/quote] Our kid is a rising senior there, and we live elsewhere in the DCC, but put Einstein as our first choice. We've been really pleased with it. Most of the teachers have been terrific--very dedicated, smart, good communicators. The school is not too big, not too small. It has the same 7 periods each day, not a block or modified block schedule like some other DCC schools. The administration has been in flux lately. There was a longtime principal who retired in 2019, and he was replaced by a veteran MCPS principal last year. She just was named president of the administrators union, so we now have a brand new principal who started in July. He seems great, lots of energy and a positive attitude. If there are ever school plays and musicals again, buy some tickets and see the really talented kids perform. [/quote]
