This happened to our neighbors a couple of years ago and they appealed, won, and both went. The twin who was originally accepted, hated the program and wanted to return to our neighborhood school and the twin originally rejected LOVED the program. They ended up staying (and the first twin ending up liking it much better in 5th grade); second twin is now at middle school magnet and first twin is at our local middle school (even though she too was accepted at both Eastern and Takoma Park). So in answer to your question, I'd do whatever I thought was best for "each twin" rather the "the twins."

Any knowledge or thoughts on coldspring HGC. Is there a difference in curriculum or types of kids at that program versus Barnsley?
