[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you navigate the schools in PG? The homes are lovely and people are nice, but these schools are awful! We commute to GDS and its a terrible drive everyday. I would love to sell my house but it's underwater. What do people you know in similar circumstances do about this?[/quote]

I think a lot of people repeat "the schools in PG are awful" without really doing any research or comparing them to similar neighborhoods in Montgomery or NoVA. Some are bad, but as a pp said, some are really good. MD school ranking has two of the TAG magnets as #1 and #2 in the state, and some of the other elementary schools also rank highly.

As someone else pointed out, there are also good private schools in the area, though if GDS is your standard, perhaps you won't be happy with the PG options.

One way or another, we're happy here. I'm tired of the "the schools suck" mantra, but in some cases it is based in fact. But there are crappy schools in other districts too. [/quote]
