[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here once more. Thank you again for all helpful replies.  The MCPS website is helpful in zoning etc, but I was hoping to come here for some real life experiences.  I don't need my kids to be in the best magnet programs or the top rated whatever fancy bullsh*t. I just want them to grow up in a friendly, ,open, and caring community, and have the opportunity to receive a decent public education with programs available for whatever their interests may be.

Maybe this is a pipe dream and doesn't exist in this country anymore, but it is difficult to decipher responses when people are like "It's great we love it!" and then others are like "you will fear for your life walking home and your child will be traumatized".

Fairfax county was not for us, as our budget put us too far in the suburbs to enjoy ourselves and again, it seemed like an all or nothing situation with the schools and the communities.

We gave AA County a try, and we have loved our local ES but the teachers are fleeing at an alarming rate, our BOE is a hot mess, and I have no faith in the secondary schools.  Plus I am so sick of the racism here.

I just want my kids and my husband to be safe, happy, and have opportunities to grow in the ways they want to.  If Takoma Park isn't it, then fine.  I just don't get why I can't just get honest answers about people's experiences without this bickering nonsense.  Like would a humble white family of 5 with a scientific background and bright, friendly kids be happy in Takoma Park?  I don't see why this question sparks such debate.[/quote]
This is DCUM. When it comes to MCPS, we specialize in disinformation, innuendo, and character assassination. Good luck![/quote]
