[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, going to a W school vs. RM will not improve your SAT scores, or your AP scores etc. Kids with rich educated parents will do well. W schools have more rich parents than other schools. The quality of instruction or curriculum per se is not superior - so this whole concept of better school does not fly with me. RMIB magnet is an exceptional program. It would be an exceptional program regardless of which school housed it. It draws kids from all over MCPS and since it is based on merit not zip code, these are kids who are proven quantities. And, frankly - good for them. It is a gruelling program.[/quote] So I'd assume you're okay with your kids going to Anacostia or Wheaton?[/quote] My kids applied to magnet programs and got into it. So, I don't have to sweat it and worry about which ES, MS or HS. If they were not good students they would have gone to any MCPS school. Yeah, I would not mind them going to any school - because the truth is they need to also learn what the real world looks like and how to get along with everyone. [/quote]
