[quote=Anonymous]Can folks help me understand the high school magnet situation for kids who are gifted in/interested in the humanities? (Tried to research it myself but just got confused.) Poolesville is one of the humanities magnets for part of the county, right? What are the others? Are they pretty similar or is there significant variation? What kinds of courses are offered? (Particularly in 9th and 10th grade which seems like a weak spot in non-magnet schools.) How strong is the writing instruction? Do folks generally think of them as better than, worse than, or roughly similar to the middle school humanities magnets? What are the criteria to get in, roughly? I know it's not as clearcut as the middle school magnet lottery cutoffs, but is there a general sense of MAP scores or other indicators needed? Thanks so much![/quote]
