[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids graduated from W cluster, my youngest last year. I always thought MCPS was great and I didn't notice any recent changes. What is making families now reevaluate MCPS? Sincere question - I must have missed something, or it must've happened after my kids were out. Thanks. [/quote] People are (over-)reacting to the upcoming systemwide boundary analysis. [url]https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/publicinfo/boundary-analysis/[/url][/quote] Would you prefer parents under-react? I’d rather have over active community members anytime. [/quote] I would prefer that parents react to the consultant's actual report and any subsequent decisions MCPS may make.[/quote] MCPS wants you to shut up and keeping taking it up the you-know-what. And keep paying your ever-increasing taxes of course. homegrown BS curriculum 2.0, 2 level grading scale (A or B), test retakes, ESOL bonanza, BS studies every week, no differentiation, teeny tiny CES/Magnet programs with socially engineered admit pools, bloated incompetent Administration, 30 mins A WEEK of PE in elementary school (min of all U.S. states, counties, or city schools), 2-3 hours of chromebook time starting in K onward. [b] I mean, turn OP's question around, and give us a few good reasons why we should move to MoCo and MCPS. We both work, and don't have time to babysit and un-navigateable, untransparent huge county school district that only cares about one segment of students (underperforming). What about teaching all segments to potential? [/b][/quote] MCPS is still the best in the area and one of the bests in the nation Leads the nation in AP passing scores. All groups in MCPS do better than anywhere else. https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/press/index.aspx?pagetype=showrelease&id=8161&type=archive&startYear=2017&pageNumber=3&mode= More MCPS leading. .. https://bethesdamagazine.com/bethesda-beat/schools/mcps-takes-first-place-in-ranking-on-college-preparedness-stem-career-readiness/ For "high performing " students, there is no better place than MCPS. 15 of MD 20 Regeneron scholars this year are from MCPS and one MCPS school lead the whole nation https://student.societyforscience.org/regeneron-sts-2019-scholars As you can see, I posted FACTS not anecdotes or delusions. I know private parents, NoVa parents and the other wannabes don't want hear them but these are facts, real world facts not DCUM delusions [/quote]
