[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS used to be well regarded. It’s now a complete mess.

What’s the likelihood new administration will be able to right the course? What will it take?

Considering moving out of state because it’s been such a nightmare- especially with one kid in special Ed.[/quote]

MCPS is one of the biggest school districts in the country. We have a lot of the benefits and problems that come with a large heterogeneous population (both culturally and socioeconomically). For the record, I have been very pleased with MCPS (no special ed needed). I have two in high school. I've been incredibly impressed by the breadth of options (especially in HS)!

If you're going to a small system in a wealthy area, it's probably going to be a better experience. There, you'll likely get the special ed support as well. [/quote]

Me too! I have two kids who've gotten an incredible education that far exceeds what I had at a W 30+ years ago.[b] One is at SMCS and the other is at RMIB. [/b]These amazing opportunities are there for any who value these things.[/quote]

LOL.  Just consider yourself lucky that your child got in.  There are plenty of well-qualified, bright kids who don't get into a HS Magnet program because there are more kids than seats available.
