[quote=Anonymous]My kid chose not to take it last year in 9th and was happy with that choice given that they were balancing the challenges of adjusting to high school, the longer commute, and the rigor and workload of the magnet classes (especially math). A friend took it and said the teacher was good, but it was a lot more work and they seemed more stressed out overall. My other non-magnet kid took it in 9th at our home high school and that was the right choice for them; they enjoyed the challenging class, but didn't have all the other pressures their sibling had last year. So it really depends on your child and how you think their adjustment will go. The magnet classes will provide plenty of challenge, and having an easier class for history could be a good thing. My magnet kid will take AP Gov this year in 10th.[/quote]
