[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More and more schools are using "magnet" in their program or school names it seems. Just like calling 2/3 of kids "gifted" in MCPS. I guess that makes parents happy... [/quote] Stop being obtuse. a magnet is a school or program that draws students in from outside the school's normal boundaries. It is a program that attracts students to the school who would not otherwise be zoned for that school. That is why it is called a magnet - the drawing in students aspect, not the method of admission. It doesn't matter if it is test in or lottery. It is a magnet.[/quote]
