[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At times disappointing..however I don't think my child wishes she had applied to a Magnet middle. Her HGC friends were heading back to our neighborhood school so the idea of going to a magnet alone was not appealing. The commute would have interfered with outside interests. Perhaps it would have been different if she had applied and been rejected. She can apply for HS if she chooses.[/quote] This was exactly our thought process. [b]We zone for Pyle, so we also didn't feel like there would be any real disadvantage to returning to the home school, [/b]certainly not enough to override the commute, loss of EC time, and social impact concerns. So our kid did not apply to any magnets. Would be interested in hearing from parents of kids who returned from HGC to Pyle.[/quote] How is Pyle different from other middle schools vis-a-vis there being any "real disadvantage"?[/quote]
