[quote=Anonymous][quote]Howard will fall too, eventually. But they are behind us by 10-15 years. Families with young kids should look Howard carefully.[/quote] Only if they adopt the MCPS 2.0 curriculum. The people with older kids upset about the decline are from the W schools where the demographics haven't changed. What has changed in those schools is the curriculum. 2.0 isn't just common core, its MCPS' own special version with a lovely super informative report card. Many parents with higher degrees in STEM were also thrilled when math acceleration abruptly stopped. It was just so great having your child go back and repeat math they did two years earlier. I love how my youngest can extend her childhood by counting pasta all the way up through elementary school. In the past, this was preschool stuff. Now they get to do preschool work in K-3. [/quote]
