[quote=Anonymous]We're in MoCo and I don't see the sky falling either. We're at clarksburg and have been very happy with the teachers, staff, and the community. Lots of dedicated students who take their studies seriously but also not to the point where they're uber stressed out. I grew up in MCPS and I don't know, I feel like the stuff my kids are learning now are much more challenging than what I learned here growing up. The schools in the entire DMV area are changing for sure due to population changes (we're getting more students, and we're more diverse). I think many families who see the sky is falling are missing the days when everyone around here was middle class or UMC, white or with a sprinkling of a few Asian and Black kids. That said, there's tons of focus on test scores these days and that's a problem because it's seriously just a small factor when determining how good a school is (or not).[/quote]
