[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What 12:49 said, plus people want good schools but don't want their taxes raised to pay for them.  Plus MCPS keeps throwing money down the black hole they call the opportunity gap. And, because good staff (teachers AND Principals) are leaving because of all of the above.  The new, young Principals have drunk the "MCPS is the grestest" Kool-Aide, and don't know how to do what's right for students, or support their teachers, and instead do whatever the entrenched Central Office staff tell them to do.[/quote]

Yep, so even though we were hoping to be able to give our kid the benefit of going to a neighborhood school, we’ll likely have to do private school, almost certainly leading to social isolation (just because the private school near us that we can afford is small, so she’s not likely to have a lot of neighborhood friends who go there). It really worries me, but putting her through MCPS in its current state worries me more.[/quote]

We did a small private k-5 before NCPS and our child wasn’t socially isolated. She had plenty of close friends in ES and plent in middle. You get used to driving and dropping off for 4 hours or hosting for that length of time. [/quote]
