[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only difference is that the RM program is more established and attracts the top scoring kids as a result.[/quote] So what does that mean? Better teachers? Better administration? [/quote] It means more experienced, just that. And a very high-achieving, but also highly competitive, cohort. [/quote] They are both the same program. Both have an application. One is countywide, one is regional. Anyone (county wide) can apply to RM, only those who live in the BCC, Churchill, Whitman, Walter Johnson clusters or the Downcounty Consortium can apply. The cohorts will be slightly different, but the course offerings very similar. If your kid is doing the HS application I'd have them check both off and see what happens. It sounds like each is looked at independently, so your kid might have a choice between the two- it doesn't take any more work to apply to both. [/quote]
