[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks PP. Is the TAG lottery general, or is there a targeted magnet based on your base school. In other words, is it like the FCPS GT Centers, where the GT center you go to depends on your base school?[/quote]

It's all based on your base school or rather home address.   You can go to the school website locator (if i have time later I'll hunt it up for you) and input your address (or the address of the house you are hoping to buy!) and find out which TAG school your child would go to if accepted.

I will be honest -- there has been some redistricting or boundary changing/school consolidations of late, so you shoudl never assume anything.   I think there will be some budget problems for the next few years, at the very least.   Also, I'm not sur ethe direction of the TAG program has been solidified within the school district.

[quote]Also, do you know anything about the process for transfers? My DD is GT identified in FCPS, so would she need to go through additional testing in PGCS?[/quote]

I don't know anything about it.

[quote]All data gathering at this point. :) Thanks.[/quote]

I completely understand!   Our quality of live since moving to PG County has been fantastic -- prices here are so much lower than what we could afford elsewhere andit has allowed us to have one spouse at home and the other spouse to have a very short commute!   The people we live near are fantastic, down-to-earth people and very friendly.   The schools issue I agree is a tough one, but we have been fortunate to find a great public school program for our child.  Good luck![/quote]
