[quote=Anonymous]How do kids normally do at magnets of they have health issues (not adhd) that hinders their ability to do work as quickly? Does it makes a difference if it's Blair or RM or Poolesville? I don't want to discourage DD to decline until after she explores her options, but a part of me is fearful that she will struggle socially, get poor grades, and compromise her health even further. Can parents of kids who have 504 or IEP chime on on their child's experience at the high school magnets? Was there appropriate support from counselors and teachers? How would her high performing cohort view her? DD is bright, curious and is hardworking. I am just not sure if this is enough to advise her to enter an environment where it can be a pressure cooker. Her older sister attends the local school. We are not impressed by the teachers nor counselor at our local school, and so was hoping that the magnet teachers and admin might be of better quality.[/quote]
