[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I would strongly recommend you go for the best schools you can find and live in rented accommodation if necessary.

We lived in Bethesda for about 10 yrs and knew plenty of people who had moved there from places like Takoma Park which are great places to live, with beautiful old houses, but without adequate schooling.

The poster who said you need schools where rich parents wield influence, is correct. That is where you will find the most resources for your children. [/quote]

As a teacher, I would have to agree with the influence factor of parents in Bethesda. School administrators are more responsive to parents there and if you don't yet have IEPs for your students, and believe you need not only the IEPs, but the actual services that go along with IEPs, then move to Bethesda if you can. I teach in a Title I school. It takes a really long time for students to obtain IEPs. And then, nothing changes. They remain in the same classrooms with no interventions except reporting from classroom teachers on "progress."[/quote]
