[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're just finishing out K in Mcps in a "top ranked" school. We applied to and committed to a private for next year for 1st. Dd needed smaller classes, more enrichment, and like many pps stated, a push to "do her best" that private will offer. I wasn't impressed by anything in Mcps - teachers, admin, facilities, peer group, curriculum. I could go on. [/quote] Omg it’s kindergarten [/quote] Agree. Kids don’t learn much vastly different K-3 in public or private because you have to ensure the base level foundation for all kids. People are often surprised to discover this later on.[/quote] MCPS magnet high schools are really good, but you have to hold your nose and deal with the mediocrity, lack of enrichment or challenging work, etc. until then. [/quote] My MCPS kid was in magnet all but 2 years from K-12. You just need to know your options.[/quote] Good for you but my post didn’t say that there are no magnet options in early years. I know my options, thank you. Magnet high schools are good. The rest - CES, MS magnets, etc. are mediocre at best. [/quote]
