[quote=Anonymous]I'm a Janney and Deal parent with cousins with kids in two MoCo elementary schools, so I have some chance to compare. Generally, many aspects are very similar. Teacher quality, class size, extracurriculars etc. I do think Janney has significantly more parental involvement, probably due to the legacy of DCPS problems requiring more help from parents. Also, Janney's lunch and after-school programs are higher in quality than The MoCo's aftercare programs. The place where Janney lags a bit behind is math technology and science. The math program at Janney is not differentiated, so the top half the class is behind the MoCo kids by fourth and fifth grade. Not terribly so but a bit. Also, the MoCo kids I know had more opportunities for exposure to science labs and computer programming. This may be specific to the two MoCo schools I am aware of. [/quote]
