You need to follow the thread. I was answering a PP's question about &quot;honors&quot; classes, which my DC  has been in since 6th grade, every single one.

What I am saying is that the one or two classes being offered to these students who didn't get in because of &quot;peer cohort&quot; is insulting to those students. And I never stated that  my DC applied to MS magnet. DC didn't because DC didn't want to go that far. That was DC's choice. [b]Others don't and didn't feel the same and applied, but got rejected because of &quot;peer cohort&quot;,[/b] and somehow these one or two classes,  the classes that others have been saying are lackluster and not any different than the regular classes, are supposed to make up for the rejection because of &quot;peer cohort&quot;.

If you can prove otherwise, that these classes are on par with the magnet classes offered in TPMS or Eastern, please do provide that evidence. I'm sure many parents would be very appreciative and interested in your feedback.[/quote]

Not if they're in 8th grade, they didn't.

Here's what there used to be in middle schools, for kids who were rejected from the middle-school magnet programs: nothing. Here's what there now is in middle schools, for kids who were rejected from the middle-school magnet programs: something. Something &gt; nothing.[/quote]
