[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - thanks everyone for your very useful feedback. So, it seems it will be either Eaton or Hearst. I actually was hoping for H. Mann, but that's probably not going to happen. Other consideration is to move to Montgomery County by the time kid starts Kindergarten. Though I am getting conflicting feedback on Montgomery County schools now. [/quote] Hearst or Eaton are fantastic schools. I love the community vibes of the school. Id take either of those schools over any Montgomery county school. Class size in Montgomery are enough for me to not consider. [/quote] Decent schools, most times good ones? Sure. But "fantastic"? No. --JE parent. [/quote] OP please ignore this PP. They spoke too soon. Janney is a solid school. You will see a lot more boosters from that school simply because they are 2-3 times larger than the rest so it's a squeaky wheel situation. Repost from other thread regarding test scores that came out yesterday. Janney was almost last of the schools that had more than 25 white students take the test. They appear like they are first because they have very little poor students so those average doesn't go down like the other schools. Look at the rankings below. Eaton and Stoddert are both solid (and dare I say FANTASTIC) choices as are Hearst and Mann. AVERAGE English and math white performance citywide: Oyster Adams Bilingual School 84.65% Eaton ES 82.80% Stoddert ES 82.15% Watkins ES Capitol Hill Cluster 80.80% Washington Yu Ying PCS 79.75% Maury ES 79.15% Lafayette ES 78.70% Two Rivers PCS 78.55% Murch ES 77.05% Mann ES 76.75% Janney ES 76.00% Hearst ES 75.00% Key ES 72.85% Brent ES 72.75% Hyde Addison ES 69.15% [/quote]
