[quote=Anonymous]We moved to Bethesda when both our kids were entering 3rd grade. My DD was at Bradley Hills and my DS was placed at Norwood. We did this because we thought a smaller classroom would benefit him and he'd not get "lost" or over looked as he had done in a very large public school in CA. What happened in short, was he was not happy at the private at all, the teaching was sub par and the curriculum seemed wildly out of date. By comparison our DD was thriving at BH and we could see she was learning much more than our DS. We swapped him out within a matter of months and he really was much happier at the public school and did well there. They were in Bethesda public schools 3rd - the middle of 10th grade and then we moved again. Fast forward to this year when they both just graduated from HS. They graduated in the top 10 kids of their pubic school class and are each going to their #1 top 10 choice of college. Public school all the way through from 3rd. [/quote]
