[quote=Anonymous]We started in MCPS, and have been in private for the last couple years. From our perspective, you get: 1. Much smaller class sizes. MCPS elementary classes were generally about 25. Our private is about 12. 2. No disruptive students. Our kids' MCPS classes always had a couple disruptive kids that the teacher had to tolerate. Not so in private. 3. Better organized, more customer/parent focused, less bureaucracy. We've been gone since COVID, but our impression is that MCPS has become even more disorganized than it was when we were there as a result of the COVID disruptions. 4. Less standardized testing. Our kids had so many standardized tests at MCPS that it was distracting from actual learning. I'm not against testing, but MCPS has gone overboard. 5. Much nicer facilities.[/quote]
