[quote=Anonymous]There is a huge difference between tutoring geared towards improving test scores and tutoring geared toward what the child really needs to improve his knowledge base. There is a difference between a school which nurtures intellectual curiosity in all kids and one which makes kids who don't do well on tests hate school. MCPS seems to do some things well, but it doesn't work well with kids who don't test well. At the private school my son is at, he loves science and comes home from school eager to tell me all about it - that probably wouldn't happen at MCPS for a child like him. I wish MCPS would do this, but in my experience it doesn't. Like I said before, we feel very fortunate that we are to send him elsewhere.[/quote]
