[quote=Anonymous]My experience has primarily been with the magnet programs. We have been in very diverse schools with high rates of FARMS/ESOL population and the overall experience has been good for us mainly because the classroom dynamics and peer group has been that of like-ability students. I will say that Magnet program in HS was much more intense, Middle school was by far the weakest (even in the test-in) because it was just a few classes that were magnet. As a result we continued to supplement outside of the school. We see a lot of private school kids in the magnet program in ES and MS, and my sense from talking to many of the parents is that the needs of highly able students are seldom met in private schools both in terms of peer grouping as well as curriculum. Of course, this is all just an opinion. As parents we take best decisions for our family and circumstances. [/quote]
