[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are in MCPS. In the Whitman cluster. One in middle and one in elementary. I read this board and it does not reflect my experience at all. "MCPS" may be a mess but my local schools have been great. I think it's big county and experiences vary but I have been pleased. I've looked at privates and have decided so far to stick with the Whitman cluster. Like many PPs, I think this board skews to disgruntled/haters. Talk to people in the places you are thinking of buying to get a real sense of the experience at specific MCPS schools, not the county in general.[/quote]

Whitman, Walter Johnson, Wootton and Churchill are the most premium clusters within our system. You're going to hear and see fewer complaints given your part of those clusters.[/quote]

You are probably right, but just as a data point I'm in Blair cluster and very happy with my kids' educations. They are in MS and HS, and learning more than the basics. Yes, it has absolutely meant staying involved in things like course selection, but the education is there if your kid wants to access it. My kids will finish HS having completed higher level math and science, taken more AP tests, and just generally received a better education than I did for sure. [/quote]
