um.. ok, maybe compared to WV, but not the rest of MCPS.

Middle school is definitely the weakest link, across the board. But Frost is well-liked as middle schools go. It's old but it's not an overcrowded school, especially when compared to many other MCPS school buildings and the numbers of students crammed into them.

This is OP. I don’t find the work to be very challenging, it’s too crowded, everybody’s in “advanced” classes. We moved here from a much better school system. But sounds lif this is considered great among you folks I guess there’s no point in moving to another cluster.

Did Larlo receive a C?

I liked was way more impressed with my child’s middle school experience than my child’s high school experience. This was JW/RM.

Another Rockville resident here whose kids went to Robert Frost. My kids both had really good experiences there. Dr. Jones is an excellent principle. What is it about the school you don't like? I am curious.

+1 Get your school assignment, get your cram school assignment. That’s the secret sauce of MCPS.

Lack of teaching /not enough Challenging classes…and the list goes on…
