[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Confused - how do you not get in to "any" public school?  Don't you have a home school?  Ours just requires proof of residence.[/quote]

Magnets:

Language immersion
Highly Gifted Center
Takoma Park MS Math/Science Magnet
Eastern MS Humanities Magnet
Blair Math/Science Magnet
Blair CAP
Richard Montgomery IB

Here in eastern MoCo, getting your kids a good education is all about magnets.  By the time college admissions roll around, we will be old pros.[/quote]

But these are all small programs and of course over years of school.  And do people really apply to Blair magnet and CAP?  Seems like they are totally different programs requiring very different academic profiles.  Would someone really be facebook friends with so many people whose kids got in to these very selective programs this year that they feel the need to post?  My DC knows 2 kids from his grade who got in to RM IB, and 2 at Blair Magnet.  I am not facebook friends with any of their parents.[/quote]

Yes, kids can and do get into both.

All of my kids' friends (they are both in magnets) applied to these programs.  ALL of them.  And we know lots who got in (and who didn't), and I'm FB friends with many of their parents. [/quote]

You obviously know a smarter breed of kid than I do!  And a smarter breed that has parents active on facebook. [/quote]

Kids in magnets tend to apply to magnets.[/quote]
