[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really doesn’t matter which state college a teacher went to or how much math or science they studied there. What matters is whether students are only doing the basics at grade level or if they’re ready to take on advanced work. At Carson, teachers see students who are eager for that next step—whether it’s Olympiads, robotics, MathCounts, and more. Franklin, on the other hand, leans more toward the fine arts, with a focus on music, theater, and similar areas. FCPS acknowledges this difference, check their individual school characterization.

To what are you referring when you cite "individual school characterization"? Are you referring to the school profiles? If so, you are grossly misunderstanding and mischaracterizing those profiles. You are also being extraordinarily unfair to the staff and students at BOTH schools to pigeon-hole their talents the way you have.

I'm not sure why it is so difficult for some of the respondants here to admit that both schools are outstanding schools and trying to pit one against the other does no one any favors. [/quote]

NP. You’re taking it personally which I find really weird. I had kids at both schools and we just prefer Carson. We felt the teachers and students were better overall at Carson. Get over it. If you don’t agree oh well. I don’t care.[/quote]
