So why bother to run the class?
The whole goal of the classes was to keep high-performing kids together. When there was all that uproar about MCPS using the "peer cohort" criteria for admissions to magnets MCPS argued that the enriched classes would provide a magnet-lite experience within their regular schools by keeping the cohort together for those classes.
The only justification for this, IMO, is if everyone at Pyle scores in the 99th percentile for reading/English. Do they?
