[quote=Anonymous]I think we're going off course. While the OP correlated the price of the house he/she lives in to the quality of the education he/she expected, I think the core of the issue is the frustration with the quality of the FCPS education. To that end, I think many MANY parents are in the same boat, whether you're living in an apartment or a $3M house--either way, the curriculum sucks in ES! The teachers are woefully undertrained to handle to amount of work necessary to provide a healthy and open teaching environment for their kids. Many involved parents can write a thesis about all the things that could be done better, and when some bring it up at School Board meetings, it's always the same pathetic response--funding, not enough funding to do great things that can be done. Status quo is much easier than making wholesale changes on how to fully develop a challenging curriculum that doesn't tax each teacher while playing up to each kid's potential. [/quote]
