Those school districts should take their PARCC and MAP tests in November (and still knock the cover off the ball) and then go learn some real material the rest of the year, to the correct challenge level. This teach to the dumbed-down test curriculum is horrid. My kid does not need another June Pizza Party for his class scoring best on their PARCCs, he needs to learn, be challenged, be engaged, practice speaking/listening in class and be taught to potential![/quote]

So your kid is tutored because school is too easy?[/quote]

Our 6th grader is bored out of his mind after doing HGC for 4th and 5th grade. I might ask if he wants to do some favorite subjects after school or something with a solo tutor or teacher. Whatever keeps his love of learning, because it sure isn't MCPS middle school. Unfortunately.

So yes, then our kid will have private teachers in certain subject matter, working on new and progressive material not covered in MCPS. We had him doing Spanish during elementary school, our PTA did not offer it and when I tried the Brazilian contingency got Portugese instead. [/quote]
