Anyone know what the Middle School Magnet Process will be like this year?

What is the percent cutoff this year for the map scores, last year was 85%.

Yes it was the top 15% but that was the top 15% of a local school which may be a bit higher or lower than national or county norms.

I think it's the top 15% of home HS cluster. My 99%er got in so I'm fine with it. Resigning myself that my other 99%er may not.

Somehow, it seems 1 in 10 people around here have a 99%er. Shame that isn't reflected in the usual discourse.

It seems more likely parents of said children tend to be more involved and seek out advice on places like DCUM.

On DCUM, all of the kids are above average.
