[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Heard from a neighborhood parent it did not go that well this year for her child or their classmates. Is this true? Are HS magnet admissions from the MS magnets down significantly from the previous years?[/quote] I get that it's anecdotal but my TPMS who got into SMCS says all their friends from school did too.[/quote] Yeah, I think this thread is just an attempt to denigrate the magnets and the system that benefited lower SES students.[/quote] Agree. Every time the selection process was changed, I heard the same old story that “my DC’s cohort is smarter than the cohort of such and such years”. What they don’t understand is that there is little difference in“giftedness” among those kids who are qualified for accelerated programs (off course there are some outliers). [/quote]
