[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What grade is your child entering? Is he already in a magnet? As you are new, it might be better to be in your home school to meet kids from the neighborhood. Also, sports practices are 5-6 days a week that you’d have to deal with transporting if you are not at your home school.

Hope this helps![/quote]

Thanks for the reply! He’s entering 10th grade. We’re coming from out of state and our district does not have magnets at all, which is part of the stress here for me. [/quote]

OP, there is no point in stressing about magnets or school choice. Your kid is too late to participate in school choice or magnet applications. Just focus on finding housing zoned to the high school you want your kid to attend (and that aligns with your budget and commute). Highschools with IB programs (whether they have the IB magnet or not), will allow your kid to do IB if they want to in 11th & 12th. If you move to the DCC, your kid would have the opportunity to participate in the lottery for their junior year, but, why would you make them move high schools again?[/quote]
