[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two kids - zoned for Churchill.  Both in private for different reasons.  The smaller classes require them to be attentive and present, which makes such a difference in their ability to actually retain information.  MCPS high schools have gotten too big and way too easy to disappear into the noise.  I don't have a reference point to compare Churchill academics to my kids education, but their elementary & middle school learning has far exceeded MCPS.   [/quote]

No being sarcastic, I’m just wondering how that could be? I send my child to a top school in DC and it’s not much better academically and actually in some ways worse than what was being taught at mcps. I cannot understand what these schools are because as I already stated my child attends a top one but people on here say they are getting better education than mcps. I am so skeptical of that. In reality, I’m paying for the smaller class size and nicer facility. Nothing more. [/quote]

I was just going to type basically the same thing.  I think people here sometimes have a hard time admitting that private is just not worth it in many cases.  I'm not saying this as an outsider.  Both of our kids are enrolled in private school.[/quote]
