[quote=Anonymous]I recently switched my oldest to parochial mid-middle school. We had been at DCPS since PK. The difference in the education has been eye-opening. My child never had homework, papers, projects, etc. that required out of school work in 7 years of schooling. I don’t recall a class ever reading a full novel. They did not learn grammar. The only place where my child was at or ahead of the grade level was math. Woefully behind in composition, reading comprehension, etc. And this is a child who got straight As in 6th grade, 5s on all sections of the various PAARCs taken, etc. My only regret is that we didn’t switch years ago. Consequently we are now moving our younger children as well. [/quote]
