[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You high school parents are so out-of-touch and entitled.  Most gifted elementary and middle school kids get next to nothing from MCPS and are thrilled at the idea of getting anything meaningful in high school.

But rather than opening up the doors so most smart kids in MCPS can get a good education in high school at least, you want to gatekeep it so it's perfect for the very tippy-top kids at the expense of everyone else.

(And don't fool yourself that you're arguing that they should keep all the countywide programs but you're fine with them also adding a bunch of regional ones too-- we all know that's not going to work and your argument basically amounts to killing the changes entirely.)   [/quote]

Hundreds of kids can't attend magnet for various reasons. Having regional magnets closer to home will; allow so many kids to attend.

I agree, posters are trying to fool no one by arguing that keep countywide and then add regionowide. They know very well that it will kill region wide magnets.

4-5 HS taken together you can always find 50-100 kids who can do hard programs together. That's wider access and more sustainable. [/quote]
