[quote=Anonymous]My 2 kids were in the magnet. My youngest is now in college. As I recall, the magnet teachers all seemed very knowledgeable about their subjects. In terms of teaching quality, some were really great and some were really -- not. As for getting the students engaged in the material, most of these kids start out engaged. Keep in mind that everything is in flux. Teachers come and go, and get shuffled around to teach other classes, and that’s when things are stable. One year, the biology teacher was on extended leave (maybe maternity, I don’t remember the details), so they had substitutes most of the year and sometimes the magnet coordinator ended up covering the class. I would expect that COVID means there is a greater likelihood of teachers having to take sick-leave, and the pool of effective(?) substitutes will be stretched even thinner than normal. [/quote]
