You are correct, our experience was one year in public after she had been in private (we switched for financial reasons).  We weren't willing to wait until MS for my child to get a more well-rounded education in public.  After her one year (5th grade), we pulled her and she's now in 7th, in private.  And doing rigorous academic work in an atmosphere that cultivates personal responsibility, tolerance, service to others, and has a strong commitment to quality extracurricular activities.  There is no way I was going to send her to our local MS after the nonsense I saw in our local ES.  [/quote]

So essentially you're admitting that you have no experience with MoCo middle schools -- none, no experience whatsoever -- yet you have incredibly strong opinions about them and won't hesitate to post these uninformed opinions on DCUM?  This is when DCUM becomes useless as a source of reliable information....[/quote]

NP here.  I think you're misreading the PP's statements.  As I read them, she's saying her family has experience with a MoCo elementary school and she didn't want to wait until middle school for her child to get a more well-rounded education.  She says nothing about the quality of MoCo middle schools and she specifically refers to what she saw in her child's elementary school.

You're more generous than I am.  Because I do see strong opinions about MS ("no way I was going to send her to our local MS") even though she says she's never tried it.  This is when DCUM pisses me off....[/quote]
