[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don't think a lack a TAG elementary centers is the problem.  Generally everyone who applies for 2nd grade gets into a TAG magnet.   In my mind a big problem lies with what happens to the TAG kids or other high performing kids who are left behind in the local Elementary Schools.  If all TAG kids stayed in their local schools it would give the administrators at the local schools a reason to commit more funding to a TAG program in the local school.  IMO they should get rid of the TAG elementary school magnets entirely and focus on middle and high schools.

A big problem is where to send your TAG student when they get to middle school.  We need more high quality middle school programs. Lots of people choose to send their kids to TAG/Immersion/Montessori/Creative Arts Schools because it gets them through 8th grade.  [/quote]

Yes, middle school is a big problem. If your kid doesn't get a seat in a TAG program in 2nd grade, then you are out of luck. Very, very few seats are available after then.[/quote]
