[quote=Anonymous]MCPS is very bizarre. I almost feel as if they want the kid's educated outside the school so the school can enjoy high test scores without actually teaching.

The K curriculum is really easy and the majority of the class is completely bored learning how to count to 10. However, if your child isn't comfortable reading and writing several levels ahead of where they are teaching, its a problem that the school points out. We had a friend who moved here from out of state and they sent her 1st grader back to K because her writing skills were not as strong as the other kids. She was no where near behind based on national levels but she would require instruction. I really think MCPS can't manage the large class sizes, expect that kids just sit around and expect the kids to already know everything when its time for assessment.

We're all encouraged to make sure to supplement in everything (except math..math should not be learned in MD for some reason) but then the kids do nothing in school. [/quote]
