[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^You obviously did not attend an elite magnet. Top ranked public high schools like New Trier, Bethesda - CC, McLean, Shaker Heights, NYC schools - Stuy, Bronx Science, Hunter, etc., TJ, etc. send just as many if not more students to Ivies and comparative schools like Stanford than even the top ranked elite privates like Exeter. As such they're a pretty good indication of future opportunities, I'd say.[/quote] What would have happened to that magnet student had they stayed in their home school? They would probably have had the same result. It is harmful to the schools who have educated that child from K-8 only to have them move district and make it look like that neighborhood school is "better". It not, they just move great student around to pull scores up.[/quote]
