[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are very happy at our MCPS school. Would I change a thing or two? Sure, but I’m 99% thrilled with it.[/quote]

Can you share which MS your kids are in?  We were happy in ES, but the academics at our MS are kind of terrible.  English, especially.

A PP who is beyond frustrated with high school. I hated English in public middle school too, but it has been much better in high school. No significant writing, though.  My child wrote 7-10 page essays in 4th grade, in private. He wrote almost nothing in his public middle. He’s probably writing 4-5 page papers now in 10th.

Similarly, my kid wrote around a dozen 2-10 page essays in 4th grade CES at MCPS. It was such a great program, but their MS has an honors for all model so not a lot of writing.[/quote]
+1 yep.  MCPS MS does zero to prepare kids for the rigors of AP classes in HS, even with the supposed more advanced classes in MS.

Luckily my DC figured it out with our help,  but the first quarter was a struggle. [/quote]
