[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are now in an MCPS school but also have prior experience with DCPS, one EOTP school and one WOTP school. Honestly, had a good experience in all 3 schools.

The EOTP school had a lot of resources from Title I funds and DCPS-specific funds for low-performing schools. Smaller class sizes than any other school I've seen, very engaged teachers, excellent principal.

The WOTP school had a very active PTA that could raise funds to pay for additional staff members. Class sizes were a lot larger though than the EOTP school.

MCPS has been really good for us - we are at a truly diverse school (no majority race/ethnicity), child receives acceleration when it is needed, and in future may qualify for more formal acceleration (what they call compacted math, for example, where kids do three years of math in two). I don't think my child will get into the G&T programs, which are intended for the top 2%, but they are there to serve the kids that are truly gifted (not just smart).

I really don't think it needs to be a big competition between the various school systems. Kids can get a good education at any of these schools.
