[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And yet people claim the MCPS magnet programs are so great? What a joke.[/quote] the true magnet programs are better.[/quote] +1, but this means that the magnets are now the ONLY option for kids in MCPS who need differentiated instruction. This creates an unhealthy environment, and absolutely undercuts the promises MCPS made to parents back when they realigned admissions to the magnet MS programs. At that time, they claimed that kids who had a "peer cohort" of highly able learners would be educated together, essentially creating mini-magnets within schools with a significant number of highly able students. Now they are rolling that back. I've been pretty positive on MCPS but this feels like an enormous slap in the face to parents who took them at their word when those admissions changes were made.
