[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]QO consistently ranks around the same level as schools that are considered good in my home state of California, for context.[/quote] that's not saying much since so many CA schools are terrible. -former Californian who moved out due to the schools. Couldn't justify the high col with the quality of the schools.[/quote] Maybe in the city you’re from. But the schools I’m referring to are respected and highly sought after.[/quote] well, I lived in the SF Bay Area, in a town more expensive than the DC area. I looked at the courses offered, the programs, and they don't compare to MCPS programming. And don't get me started on the $1000/child per year "donation" for "extras" like PE, art. Let me guess.. the schools you are referring to that are "well respected" are in towns that are ridiculously expensive, and propped up by the wealthy parents. QO is not a horrible school. It's fine, but it doesn't have the $$$ that some of the "well respected" CA schools do. So to compare QO to the "well respected" rich schools says a lot about those "well respected" CA schools more so than QO.[/quote] Yep. QO is fine. Some of us want more than “fine” for our kids.[/quote] Well my niece went to UNC from QO I think that's fine. And my other one went to Columbia also fine. QO has an AP Calculus teacher that everyone in his class pretty much gets a 5 on the exam. Yeah again QO is fine. Perfect no. More than fine yes. Just like any other school get what you put in. If you are saying private is better LOL NO[/quote] Your grammar is atrocious. Eek.[/quote]
