[quote=Anonymous]I was a former teacher at Parkland. All students take 2 full year science courses complete a yearly science fair project and have the opportunity to take space, aviation, and engineering courses. My only complaint is that a lot of the students at Parkland just chose it since it is close to their home and don't really care about the science and engineering work. What ends up happening in every class is that you have 4 to 5 high achieving motivated students coming in from the magnet program mixed in with the all the local students. Sometimes the class can have the wrong mix of personalities/abilities and make it difficult for the high achieving students to get challenged enough. That said, if your kid loves science and engineering there is no better program in the county and your kid will gain a lot from the experience.[/quote]
