[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here. The one thing I'd add is that the workload at non-magnet MCPS middle schools does leave something to be desired. So, there's a learning curve for kids coming into the magnet high schools, when it comes to time management, pacing out long assignments, etc. That's of course on top of the normal "transition to high school" process. My only advice for kids coming from a mainstream MS into a magnet HS program is that you (parents) keep a close eye on how many activities they are signing up for. It is tempting to join every club, try out for every sport, and some kids end up getting over-loaded quickly when they add magnet program homework on top. Just help your child manage their time for the first few months, if they are a "joiner" but not used to the larger workload of HS. [/quote] CAP has very little homework.[/quote]
