[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll bite. If you want your kid pushed from the school, skip public education and pay for private. [/quote] I don't know what you actually mean but private schools in this area are inferior to MCPS. Only a few can compare to MCPS.[/quote] Seriously? My kid went to silver creek and was given sentence starters as their only source of writing. He had an A in math because he could retake anything until he got an A and the teacher point blank told me he was a C in math kinda kid, but that was only when I pushed her for the info. He’s now at private. There is Hw, quizzes, and tests. He’s actually learning how to study. I think he’ll be better served for high school than had we stayed in MCPS. The question OP asked was whether mcps pushes kids. And quite frankly, they don’t. [/quote] Thst is not exactly what OP asked. She asked about which school would give the best support in MCPS, not whether mcps pushes kids. OP, my kids are at Blair and Wheaton. Very happy with both schools. Lower level honors classes at Blair had some misses, but everything at Wheaton has been great. Magnet and AP classes at both are outstanding. Our ES/MS feeders in TP were all great. Don't know about for Wheaton (I realize that was not on your list but thought I would add). Have friends in the Einstein cluster. Both have loved the schools -- Sligo MS and Newport MS and corresponding ESs. Einstein is smaller. Friends are very happy with it. Good luck. [/quote]
