[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My question to everybody who is against the regional 6 program... don't you think this will increase the amount of space across the county? Currently, in SMAC, there are about 200 spaces in the county. But now there will be about 600. I know for the Blair program, they have around 1000 applicants from across the county, I wonder how many of those were DCC?[/quote] I don't know about the numbers. But I think that MCPS is putting way too much of a focus on specialized programs when they can't get their act together to offer strong options at local schools. In other words, I am against the 6-region model because I think MCPS should put its resources resources into making sure all schools have good programming. You shouldn't have to move to a W school or go to a magnet program to get a good education. Most kids -- 85% -- end up at their home schools. The more money they spend on programming, the less there is for improving home schools.[/quote]
