[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are simply looking for advanced classes and that's the only factor, probably MCPS magnet middles are your best bet. Most people are looking for a more well-rounded middle school experience so pick something different....[/quote] MCDP magnets require kids to attend honors classes in the non-magnet subjects. So kids in the Takoma science magnet take honors English, language, etc. [/quote] I like smaller MS environments - like 100-250 kids per grade not 500. I think the MCPS magnets provide this sense of community and some familiar faces each class (i.e. not 35 totally different set of faces each hour!), or the two smaller MS (westland and S??), or any number of privates or parochials. As for "most advanced" I'd go magnet or a private with differentiation or strong progressive nature or even an immersion school if you like that angle. AAP?[/quote]
