[quote=Anonymous]FWIW, came from a city school and our experience thus far in elementary with two kids, one older, one younger: -Fewer teacher interactions (only one individual conference/year), but always very responsive if we wrote with a concern -City school was definitely better at both preventing bullying and handling/addressing it if it occurred - even got emails from specials teachers if something minor happened in their class -random assignment grades mostly don't get reported in schoolology (occasionally will see one random test score). I think Middle school uses them more (7th grade and up?), so beyond some assignments coming home with comments, do not have a great picture of how things are going until the 1:1 conference at the end of October where iready, assessment scores get reported. -Does seem that FCPS is better at teaching reading mechanics than the city school with more of a systematic, what seems to be phonics based, approach.
