[quote=Anonymous]We are a Janney family. As far as public schools in DC, I think it’s probably the best. The administration is very responsive and most of the teachers are great. We’re sending her to private next year because the class sizes are too large at Janney for individual attention. Teachers are forced to teach to the middle the majority of the time (they’re not at fault for that). There are frequent disruptions from problem kids with no recourse to deal with them. Were also sick of the constant testing and assessments and the fact that science, art, language and music only happen one day a week. We also never planned to send her to Deal, and the competition for private schools is more intense in fifth. We’ll know if the grass is greener in about 6 months. [/quote]
