[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Why is Woodward receiving an arts magnet over more deserving schools[/b]?

What a ridiculous question. Arts magnet is the most useless magnet a school can get. Completely pointless. Only a handful arts magnet students will end up working in arts since society doesn't need hundreds of thousands art majors. This is only excuse for lazy kids and parents to feel they are doing something special while trying to avoid real subjects, subjects that prepare you for life.

And why is Woodward less deserving than other schools? What exactly makes schools more deserving than others?

In the meantime, Kennedy in that region is supposed to get real magnet (IB) but no parents in other schools will send their kids in such low performing school to attend completely unproven magnet. So it will end up being just Kennedy students, making that otherwise meaningful magnet, also pointless.

None of these magnets are real magnets as Mcps is not adding teachers or giving more funds.  [/quote]

smoke and mirrors "magnets" will still waste money[/quote]

Not really as they are not getting any extra staffing or funding for needs.  They will offer the same thing the school aready offers.[/quote]

yes really. they will take away resources from teaching important subjects such as math, science. isntead it will be pottery and acting.[/quote]

Theater is important.  Never seen a school with pottery.  That would be nice too.  Its not taking it away.  There should be enough funding given the per pupil amount MCPS has for all of it.[/quote]
