[quote=Anonymous]My son is sort of "very low normal" in terms of test performance (he has other strong skills, but test taking is not one of them). He does not have LD (we've had testing done), but he just doesn't do well on tests. At our MCPS, he would be invited to participate in extra after school tutoring and free (FREE!!) summer school to boost his test scores. He would be utterly miserable. At his private school, we ignore low test scores and pay for some extra tutoring in math and reading. He loves school - we and the school focus on what he is good at, try to remediate to the extent that we can and plan for a future that utilizes what he is good at. Some of my neighbors whose kids are in gifted or magnet programs are well served by MCPS, but my son would not be. We feel blessed that we can provide him an alternative.[/quote]
