[quote=Anonymous]7:30 here.  I would have no qualms about teachers at all -- the magnet teachers are great and the non-magnet teachers are  too, in general.

Lots of people worry before hand about the non-magnet aspect of things but it works out well; I wouldn't hesitate for  a second to send a child to the magnet.  It is an amazing program -- when I look at what my eighth grader is doing in school, I am blown away.

The thing about the nonmagnet classes is this.  They are the standard MCPS middle school classes that you get anywhere around the county.  The level of rigor, the material -- all the same.  The teachers are super-dedicated.  But it is true that there may be a wider range of ability levels than in some other county schools, and that can sometimes be an issue.  You might have more kids who are disruptive -- in the sense that they might talk more or good off or be less academically inclined.  But even so, we're still talking only a few kids.

But one thing I want to say is that the non-magnet kids aren't scary, or bad influences, etc. etc.  There's a lot of misinformation on these boards so I don't want to contribute to that.[/quote]
