[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, if it's any consolation, it's not like the CES programs are feeders into the MS magnets, at least based on what the principal at our DC's CES ES said before the beginning of this school year.  The number of kids who made it from the program to a MS magnet dropped precipitously under the new selection criteria.  Whether that changed for next year's 6th grade classes I have no idea, but the principal's point was to not expect your kid to be selected into a MS magnet.  At least that's what I took out of it.

This.

OP, I have a kid in the CES and it’s good, but not the most amazing thing in the world.  It’s somewhat teacher dependent, and your kid may have a good experience in 4th grade anyway.

And, very few kids from the CES are attending the MS Magnet.  Even the ones who got in are choosing to skip it.  And very few even actually got in!

MCPS doesn’t do enough enrichment for higher achieving kids in lower ES.  It’s crappy, but your kids will be fine.
