[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not very well known but Takoma Park ES has this program that one has to apply very early - perhaps in the beginning of K itself. My kids have been in the magnet path since ES (when it was known as HGC and kids had to take a long exam to get in). I have yet to meet someone who went to TPES elementary magnet. IMHO, it is not worth it for parents to drive their very young kids all the way to TPES for magnet. If you are living close to the area, by all means go for it. What can a magnet from 1 -3 grades teach a child more than what the parents can teach him/her at home? [/quote] :roll: those kids aren't even wiping their own asses yet but the middle class parents are quick to call them gifted? It is a keep the middle class kids away from the poor kids program. Hell the later years are basically that, the early years are only that. It is at Takoma because of the shear number of poor kids freak the middle class parents out. [/quote]
