[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they actually exist?!? I am a parent of a Jefferson kid and can definitively tell you that, yes, the school has advanced math track and an advanced writing class. If you’re going to question even basic facts that people with actual experience at the school are willing to share, then I don’t see much point in going beyond the basics. [/quote] 1) It seems like people with actual experience at the school are not willing to share very much. What does that say about the school? 2) How do children get placed in these advanced tracks? Why would an administrator not be willing to explain that? 3) Sorry but some of us have learned the hard way not to believe what DCPS tells us, and to ask questions sooner rather than later. Maybe some day you'll have that kind of experience too.[/quote] Why should I even bother to try to answer any of these questions if there is apparently an unwillingness to to believe what I do say? What is the name of the specific “administrator” with whom you spoke? [/quote] None of this matters even in the advanced class if it isn't actually advanced and it really isn't compared to what you get in privates or outside DC. Again anyone with commonsense knows these schools are subpar. Folks are still trying the lottery to get out. [b]Justs admit it you are sacrificing your personal commute over the quality of the school your children attend. [/b][/quote] People on here whine all the time that they are being "judged" for not sending their kid to their in-bound middle school. But I see far more judging of those who actually choose their in-bound school. This is a prime example. [/quote]
