[quote=Anonymous]Okay folks this happens every year.  The magnets are the magnets are the magnets.  They emphasize different things.  That’s  it.  Each has cohorts of really bright students and provides a good foundation for HS.  Many home MS’ also provide a good foundation.

Going to the magnet at one level does not guarantee you access to a magnet at the next level. The process starts completely over.  And to be frank that is fair.

Every MS has the accelerated math options and your kid will be placed in the appropriate class for them based on their current class, scores, and teacher recommendation.

This merit that most of ya’ll talk about is a false idea. Contrary to belief, no one is guaranteed acceptance to any of the magnets and there are plenty of smart kids in MCPS.  Most are not Gifted, just born into families who care about education and have the means to start early and push their kid along.  Choose to go to the magnet or choose not.  But please stop coming on here acting like your kid is some genius who will be forever harmed by not getting into the magnet program or the magnet of their choice.  Or worse irreparably harmed by going to a different school.[/quote]
