[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And that’s RM, Pooleville and Blair. RM has so many Banneker Key scholars (the other 2 have some) which is the full ride at UMD. Most magnets get UMD Honors and a lot of money. [/quote] I was looking for this comment. All of the magnets have a significant portion of graduates attending UMDCP, not because they didn’t get into an elite school, but because they got either a full ride (Banneker Key) or the honors scholarship of $10k. They can graduate while paying less than a full year at a private school. Many know they intend to go to graduate school, and saving money now and then attending an elite grad school just makes better sense. But back to OP’s question. I teach at RM. Every year there are a couple 9th graders that return to home school, for various reasons. If they stay until the DP programme begins, but then decide not to continue, they stay at RM but switch to AP classes.[/quote]
