[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As others have pointed out, class size is a function of the MCPS cap (look it up) and the number of students per grade. Its a waste of time to assess a school based on class size. Up until 4th grade my son's grade had just enough kids to have 6 classes so they had 6 small classes. The cap goes up for 4th grade so then they had 5 huge classes. The grade behind and 6 huge classes the whole way through. [/quote] exactly. for some reason my daughter's grade had a very large cohort so the class sizes were big. the grade below here has much smaller class sizes because there aren't as many kids overall. It varies every year.... They will add another class if they reach a certain point but for my daughter's class they didn't quite reach that point and left the class sizes large (27, 28, etc) [/quote]
