[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you are not getting hardly any responses after a few days of your post.  The few responses that you have gotten, none have said it is rigorous. That’s your answer there.

It’s obvious from your post you want to convince yourself that it’s an option for your kid and no matter how you try to convince yourself, the reality is what it is.  Nothing is going to change that.

I would plan on moving or going private if you don’t get into charters.[/quote]

This is anecdotal, but the parents I have met who are happy at their DCPS middle schools are not the parents who come on here to fret about responding to posts defending their choices. And those that have come on here to explain why they and their families are happy at their DCPS school are often accused of being 'boosters', so I think it deters engagement. 
That being said, go to an open house, find folks in the neighborhood that are enrolled in the school, that's a good way to find your answers.[/quote]

I was going to say the same thing. If you care so little about your child’s academics that you put them at Stuart Hobson you’re not going to be refreshing DCUM.  [/quote]

I am the PP you are responding to, and we are not saying the same thing. There are a lot of competitive parents in this region who come on forums like this because they feel the need to justify their decisions or cut down others who chose differently.
But there are an equal number of parents who are happy with their families school choices, are impressed with what they are learning, and don't feel the need to come on here, or don't even know this forum exists. Or when they do come on here they get yelled at for 'boosting' so they stay away. Doesn't mean they don't care about their kids education.
All that to say, it is naive to think this site is any sort of accurate sample of families at a school.[/quote]
