We moved near downtown Bethesda specifically because the Bethesda Elementary School had a good reputation SN-wise.
We were not disappointed. They agreed to create an IEP, they lined up services I wouldn't have dreamed of asking, they cared for him.

Bethesda Elementary is a great school, as is Westland Middle. Both are very demanding, imo. Not as demanding as my kid's previous Private British School, but good schools.  I found that my kids did better there due to so much structure than after we moved further north.  But they are having more fun in a school that is easier, so not all bad. Receptionist, however, was extremely rude all the time. I felt so bad when I listened to her talk down to a nice Dad(immigrant with somewhat poor English) who had 2 kids attend Bethesda and were now in Westland and they changed some attendance zone or they changed the address, not sure, and he brought his youngest child to school, and she told him they had to leave as his kid is now zoned for a different school. I had to bite my tongue the whole time, she was just so out of line, especially given that two of his kids spent 5 years there. This was a few years ago.[/quote]

Please complain, in writing, to the principal about what you heard.  That is appalling.  I live in the BCC cluster and I find, unfortunately, that there are still teachers and professional staff (bus drivers, administrators, etc.) who are racist, rude or mean.  It is the exception rather than the rule.  But, they should be called out.  [/quote]

This was YEARS ago. The receptionists must have had training since then. They are very gracious.[/quote]
