[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]True story. A friend of mine whose daughter attended MCPS through HS is now at Towson University. She is struggling because she doesn't know how to study. Because she never had exposure to mid term or final exams, she is having to learn how to study and is considering dropping a class or two. This is so sad. Also, she was an honor student in HS FWIW.[/quote] Oh we lived that story with our oldest. He attended our local public HS and never had to really learn to study and didn't have exams. Went to college and it did not go well with him dropping out after just one year. Partly due to that experience, we put #2 son in a small Catholic preparatory high school, and he was prepared to keep up with the reading, studying, mid-terms, final exams of college and will have his undergrad degree in the spring. We have a neighbor who is a sophomore in public HS and her school day is over at noon. NOON for a 10th grader. It's mind-boggling.[/quote]
