Your snarky comment deserved a snarky response.

Now that you mentioned your detachment to the subject let me explain, I do not have a pony in the race. My kids qualified in multiple magnet programs and chose RM for the promised rigor and my last kid is already in the senior year. I am bringing this to the attention of other non-RM parents.

[b]Most non-RM parents do not know this path and believe that they are sending their kids to a unique program[/b]. MCPS and RM has not made this information public and they need to. You may see this as a complain or you may see this as a ask fro transparency.

RM gets extra MCPS money to operate a 4-year magnet. It needs to operate it that way. Otherwise, it should not get the same fund as Blair and Poolesville from MCPS.

And so they are.

Speaking of Poolesville, did you know that kids who are zoned for Poolesville HS are allowed to take magnet classes at Poolesville HS?[/quote]

I know that. However Poolesville is transparent in that regard and explain this during open house and orientation. [b]RM has not been advertising as a all magnet school, does it?[/b] [/quote]

That's because it isn't.

Could you please explain specifically what you're upset about? The website? The oversight? The RM kids in RMIB classes? The coordinators? The principal? All of the above? Anything else?[/quote]
