[quote=Anonymous]For our kid the Eastern Magnet was both wonderful and stressful. Wonderful because they did find many people who they connected with. They did better socially at Eastern than they had in elementary and felt accepted. It was stressful because the work, especially in 7th grade, was demanding for someone who has difficulty prioritizing and organizing. They are high achieving/high scoring, but not the best self management skills. Overall, it was a good experience, but much more work than the general middle school experience, and more homework/outside of school work than TPMS magnet - except for 8th grade which was much more manageable than 6th or 7th. They loved their social studies classes the most (global studies, US history, etc,, which surprised me because they were always much more literature/English focused.[/quote]
