[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seriously, who cares?  If you are not rich enough and your kid will feel bad or not fit in, then don't go.

If you and your kid are self assured and confident and do not care about superficial things  and will not feel the need to keep up - go to churchill.

I would rather buy a house I like and can afford, and neighborhood that is pleasant, friendly and safe.  Schools work out - one way or the other.

We have a nice house and not great schools. So my kids went to magnet schools. AND because we did not buy our house in Bethesda/ Potomac - we are able to provide great vacations and trips for our kids.

You know, I know this isn't the point of this thread, but it drives me nuts when people say that if your kid is bright and hardworking they'll do well in any school. What if your child ISN'T bright or ISN'T hardworking or both?  Some of us need extra help for our kids in the form of the actual school b/c we don't have the resources for extra help.  [/quote]

If your kid is not bright and/or hardworking, you needs are better served in a private school. By and large - all MCPS schools offer the same resources. The difference comes when affluent parents get their kids outside help - coaching, tutoring, enrichment - outside the school.[/quote]
