[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread clearly highlights that the perceived quality of the school is based on the economic status of the student population and not the academics provided at the school. Einstein has an IB program, a visual and performing arts center, and many opportunities for smart kids to succeed. If you compare the same demographics from Einstein and WJ, the outcomes are the same. Also, with housing prices continuing to increase (along with the heavy burden of cost of child care and student loan debt), there are more and more MC/UMC families with educated parents living in the Einstein cluster, sending their kids to the MCPS public schools. The demographics are changing, which will change the test scores for the school as a whole. We chose to live in bounds for Einstein because we see value in our MC child being friends with and learning from children who come from backgrounds different than ours. [/quote] As another poster pointed out, the same kid would do the same at any of these schools. The main variables that impact that seem mainly external since the schools provide comparable academic opportunities.[/quote]
