[quote=Anonymous]The Humanities magnet programs give kids a solid grounding in research, writing, and critical analysis, in ways that regular MCPS middle schools—and even the “honors” classes in most high schools—don’t anymore. Math is much easier to accelerate in MCPS, even outside of the STEM magnets, and you can always continue to foster their interest on the side with outside clubs, camps, and classes. Even if they’re primarily interested in STEM, they’ll still need the humanities AP or IB classes to be competitive for top colleges. The Humanities magnet will set them up for success in those classes, rather than struggling to learn all those skills on the fly in high school (alongside their advanced STEM classes). And if there’s any chance they might be interested in an IB magnet program in high school, the MS Humanities magnet will help them in both applying, and in the actual work involved. [/quote]
