[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would not put my kids in that kind of environment, and I say this as an Asian American parent whose one kid went to a magnet program. One DC wanted and needed an advanced magnet program; the other did not. I wanted to make sure that the one "not" did not feel so much pressure. So, we chose the RM cluster. One DC did RMIB magnet (which is like 75%+ Asian); the other didn't. And even then, DC is taking lots of AP classes and feeling a bit of pressure. Don't want additional pressure.[/quote] RMIB is more of a pressure cooker than Wootton.[/quote] Yes, but RM itself is not. That was my point. If a student wants the challenge, they can join RMIB. If they don't want that, they don't have to, and yet still take challenging AP classes without the added pressure from their peers, like Wootton cluster.[/quote]
