[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The behavior that I witnessed when  Hyattsville Middle School let out was violent and aggressive. A group of students went out into the street and stopped a car then jumped on it, banged on the windows, tried to open the doors, and yelled profanities. They then turned their attention towards one another and started fighting. Girls pulled hair and boys were on the ground throwing punches. I was walking down the neighborhood street with my baby in a stroller. The Hyattsville Historic District may be gentrified, but the school draws very rough kids. I would take the private school offer in a heartbeat. Why would you subject your child to a PG middle school???[/quote]

Both of the Hyattsville middle options are an absolute no. I just don't want my kids in spaces where they are living those experiences regularly. I also live in Hyattsville and my children have been in private since prekindergarten. I thought we'd be okay living here and sending our children to private, but as they're getting older, the concern of their community is surfacing. And now we are planning to leave the area. There are so many pluses to Hyattsville and some things to be missed, but the county's schools are just a mess. Op, sit, and chat with current parents. Or rather, sit back and listen to current parents talking. You'll be able to make a decision then. [/quote]
