[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There should be an announcement coming out soon. They are going to have to announce information sessions soon. They switched to COGAT which doesn't really tease out your outliers anyway, so why not have it be a lottery among your high performers? There are lots and lots of kids in MCPS that can benefit from an enriched curriculum and MCPS has chosen not to increase the number of spots in these magnets programs. My guess is that they are on the road to being done away with completely. [/quote] Like the 15% lottery last year? Are they trying to kill the magnets? [/quote] You are replying to me. I don't really understand your statement. I don't have an issue with a lottery process.[/quote] So students who are mostly just above average at STEM get slots in a magnet while outliers are ignored by the program designed to provide them an appropriate education?[/quote]
