[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you afford private or is Arlington, Falls Church, Fairfax or Howard an option? [b]If you are interested in academics, MCPS is no longer the place to be. [/b]If you are not looking for academics then look for a school that is under enrolled rather than putting kids out in trailers. They do exist in both lower and high income areas but further out. [/quote] That will surely come as news to the many, many academic-minded parents in MCPS, most of whom (though not me) have better things to do than hang out on an anonymous internet message board.[/quote] I'm an academic-minded parent with a graduate degree. Quite frankly I think the instruction in MCPS is sub-par. MCPS is highly ranked because it has a large number of smart, well educated parents who beget smart children who score highly on standardized tests. The only year that I felt my child was well taught was 4th grade at an HGC.[/quote]
