[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids zoned for TPMS (so, Takoma Park and East Silver Spring) Jane a slight advantage in that lottery.  As PP said, RM also has preference at the level.

There are also all school magnets (so, no application) but I don't know much about those.[/quote]
TPMS Math and Science magnet and RMIB magnet are not lotteries.  You have to take tests, write application essays, get letters of recommendation etc.  But it is easier if you are zoned for these schools because TPMS has a certain number of slots for local kids - 20 or 25.  I can't remember the number but it is a lot.  I don't know how many kids are admitted from Julius West Middle School into RMIB but again it is a lot - around 20 or more.

The only all school magnet I am aware of is Poolesville but I don't know how that application process works.  I know they have different learning communities you have to apply to (Math and Science, Global Ecology and maybe something else) but I don't know if you are guaranteed admission to at least one if you live in the catchment area.  this should be easy to google.[/quote]
