[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]what will happen with the kids now looking at Clemente? Will they be subjected to all of this in the future?[/quote]

NP here.  There are many problems with the Humanities program going to MLK.   The school does not have the many enrichment opportunities that are available in Clemente as a whole.   In years past, there were many students who were accepted to both programs and had to make a tough choice between the two programs. This year it has become easier because MLK is so far behind in so many things. I feel sorry for all the rising 6th grade Humanities students.

Yes, there are still many changes to come to the whole magnet program next year.  Selection criteria to both Clemente and MLK will take race into the equation hidden cleverly in "peer group" criteria.

Expect the changes to hit the admissions to magnet HS next year.  RMIB has already seen a change in the program cohort.  Next year, MCPS will play race card again to to get more students in Global Ecology (PHS) and the Humanities (PHS and Blair) magnets.
