[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have been very happy with FCPS. Oldest DC is at a T20 college for STEM major and excelling. Getting As in the most challenging classes - Physics, orgo chem, thermodynamics, python. DC feels the FCPS math and science are on par or better compared to peers. DC has been helping others in discussion sections. Some of the info is material DC learned in high school advanced classes. FCPS does not handhold. Students need to self advocate. This is the same as at a large university and while employed. Some students need small classes and more individualized instruction. Our friends with kids who were not self motivated went to catholic or private high schools. Most are not at T20 colleges.[/quote] Exactly. It isn’t about the FCPS, it’s about the kids and parents. If you have the type of kids that are going to end up at T20, it really doesn’t matter what high school they go to. [/quote]
