[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Ha ha ha. They choose a location that made sense... For them! For juicing their test scores of suboptimal host schools, or as you say " improve the schools that house them". If they made the host school less inconvenient they'd suffer from high uptake and then serve an even smaller percentage of gifted students than they currently do. Then the cat would really be out of the bag on what a tiny HGC magnet program mcps is running (in absentee and relative terms), and how low a priority it is, esp versus fairfax' G&T programs, right across the river...[/quote] Of course MCPS chose the location that made sense for MCPS. [b]How should they have chosen instead[/b]? Should they have chosen the location that makes sense for the people in Bethesda/Potomac/Chevy Chase?[/quote] The huge @$$ county should have chosen a selection of host schools spread out amongst density of students. You know, the people they serve - the students. With the dollars provided by the students' parents paying property taxes. If MSPS is all about serving itself and you are OK with that, well then the death spiral has already begun. Any time a public good is about serving itself and not the public, with the public's money, you have growing issues. [/quote]
