[quote=Anonymous]Walker is the new principal at Westland. I think it's a little early to make an assessment on her performance. Going back to the PP who said that the MS in MCPS are indistinguishable--that's not true and there are some important differences. The biggest IMO is the scheduling. Pyle has experimented with different types of schedules, but when my kid was there they had block scheduling with longer class periods. That was great for my kid, but a disaster for others. I think Westland has traditional length class periods and you have every class every day. Pick the MS based on the HS you would like your child to go to. There are very real differences between the various High Schools--both in terms of demographics, academic offerings, and sports. WJ is wildly overcrowded and relief via redistricting won't come for at least two more years. BCC has had a ton of issues with safety lately. Etc. etc. [/quote]
