[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Wondering what would happen to my Blair rising junior if the magnet ended after this year. I guess taking classes at MC?[/quote]

Who knows. They might just change the admit process and let the existing classes ride it out but that would be a big expense for an increasingly small number of students. MCPS doesn't seem to blink about doing negative things to a few classes of students. I remember when they rolled out curriculum 2.0 and announced the end of math acceleration. Kids who had been in classes two grades ahead were sent back to repeat math they had done years ago. MCPS didn't care a bit.

I suspect that they will just transfer them into the enriched/gifted program at their home school. [/quote]

Yes my Blair rising junior get stuck with that scenario.  My guess is they might end the bussing but leave the classes.  No real extra expense there.  It would be really tough to accommodate the math needs of Blair seniors at all the different high schools since they have to take math all 4 years and will have already taken Calc BC and stats...and some even calc 2.[/quote]
