[quote=Anonymous]I have an extremely bright child who goes to an East of the Park DCPS elementary.  He is getting plenty of challenge, especially in Reading and Writing.  The curriculum is open-ended in that they are reading on their own levels and can write many pages or just one page on the same subject, according to their abilities.  The Math is significantly below where he is, but he does it and then we supplement with additional work at home (he does that instead of the homework, with the teacher's permission).  There's a dedicated Science classroom and teacher and he really enjoys that.  It's not advanced, but it definitely teaches and promotes higher level thinking.  We have been very pleased with the education he has gotten thus far.  Sure, he might be bored sometimes, but that's part of life and he has to get used to it.  For the most part, we find the curriculum flexible enough to challenge him.  Now, middle school will be a whole other issue, as it is for most non-Deal/Hardy families.[/quote]
