[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Staff salaries are the same from school to school. Facilities are obviously in a wide range of conditions across the county, and there are examples of run-down schools in wealthier areas and brand-new schools in less wealthy areas, and vice versa.[/quote]

[b]Sadly the academic programs in these schools widely differ as well [/b]which is what concerns to most parents.[/quote]

One example of differing academics involves foreign language.  My child at an ECC high school has a choice of taking Spanish and French, while some W schools offer half of dozen langauges, ranging from Spanish, French, Italian, Chinese, Latin, Farsi, Japanese, to American Sign Language.

I've seen comments on this forum saying there just isn't enough interest in the ECC and DCC to have a lot of languages, but I do wish that students at all schools had the opportunity to take any of the languages offered in MCPS, possibly through some sort of centralized program.  This is true of some AP courses, as well.[/quote]

What is ECC?[/quote]

Likely a typo or auto-correct but guessing they meant DCC.[/quote]
