[quote=Anonymous]NP - my kid started in the magnet program a few years ago. Have to say that it's been good overall.. but expect to supplement the materials outside of school / at home / via third-party programs if you want to keep your kid on par. The program just isn't designed to accelerate on an individual basis - it's seems to be designed to repeat and reinforce. My kid actually lost ground the first two years of the program before we started supplementing - and the school is still about a full year behind the supplemental materials I provide. If you're okay with that, then not an issue. However, I've heard it gets more 'pressure cooker' down the road, so a parent at 6th grade+ should probably comment about that.[/quote]
