[quote=Anonymous] THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH MAGNET SEATS OR SPECIAL PROGRAM SUPPORT TO BEGIN WITH. Gifted and special needs programs have had their funding cut over the years. Middle school magnets in particular are ridiculously inadequate for the number of very competent kids who would benefit. MCPS has pushed to reduce the number of accelerated kids in their home schools. Finally, we need more alternative schools for violent kids. There are way too many sexual and physical assaults reported in MCPS schools because offenders are transferred from school to school, and keep on re-offending. There is one very inadequate alternative school where they can be placed for a short period of time, but due to lack of seats, they are rotated back into mainstream schools, where the cycle begins again. Pushing them out of the system entirely guarantees a life of crime, so we need more alternative schools to keep these kids until they get a high school diploma. Central Office needs to lose the DEI and frou-frou PR stuff it spends millions on every single blasted year, and actually spend money where the kids need it!!!! And if you're a shill from Central Office, get that message back to your overlords. [/quote]
