[quote=Anonymous]Any thoughts on how/why the writing instruction, and quality of instruction in general, is so good? For example: Is it certain specific assignments they are given? (Which ones/which kinds?) The curriculum as a whole? Do magnet teachers have a lower courseload and more time/ability to give detailed feedback on writing? Are the teachers themselves just amazing? Is it about the cohort/motivation and capacity of the students? Something else about the program? (I mean, I am sure that to some extent it is a combination of all of those things! But for parents who want to lobby MCPS for more kids to have access to this quality of education, what should we be asking for? Would replicating the curriculum (or key aspects of it) at home schools work, with cohorted classes? How about opening other similar magnets? Or is a lot of it just the specific teachers, or other factors that are really hard to replicate?)[/quote]
