[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reasons why we chose GDS over Potomac this cycle from talking to current Potomac parents : - Long criticized math program at Potomac; most k-8 kids are required to retake geometry - Conservative parents vs more left of center at GDS - More flexible curriculum: able to go up and down levels of class from year to year - No required after school sports - More diversity at GDS[/quote] Those experienced with Potomac, how to proactively address this geometry issue that the kids don’t have to repeat it? [/quote] If they pass the placement exam they don’t repeat the course. Based on how many students leave the honors program, they are more likely to err on the side of placing a child in a higher level. [/quote]
