[quote=Anonymous]Although PG is much maligned, particularly by those who don't live here, it does have issues with the school system. It also serves a much lower income and more diverse population than Montgomery County. But even with the difficulties that the schools have faced, there are very good schools to be found. Eleanor Roosevelt High School in Greenbelt is excellent, and, given the population it serves, has very impressive test scores, not all that statistically different from Blair or even that far behind BCC, which MoCo seems to hold as the "gold standard." It has a higher 4-year college attendance rate, and a higher (combined 4 and 2 year) college attendance rate than Blair and many other Montgomery County schools. It is a combination of a science and tech magnet and a regular neighborhood school- many parents in the Hyattsville area encourage their children to test into the magnet and attend that school. It's certainly worth a look, and quite quite less expensive than Montgomery County...[/quote]
