[quote=Anonymous][quote]From one side of your mouth I hear you saying that these kids "can't hack it" and then when these kids show up and perform well I hear the other side of your mouth say "well, the teachers must be dumbing down the coursework" [/quote] Huh?? Never said any such thing, but you seem to work for MCPS or the board or have some direct responsibility for this mess? Here's my message directly to you if you are.. There was nothing wrong with the two-tiered CES-Magnet system. I can even understand if the Magnet is re-defined as "the CES at the home school is non-existent or sucks so we have to pull the kid out to ensure they have a chance at academic success" type of thing. However, by making the Magnet a lottery, you've turned the whole process and once-well-respected program into a beltway joke. Parents that care about academics, care about how the school system is perceived outside of the County. You screwed up. Own it and fix it.[/quote]
