[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about humanities? is that a good program? better than GE?[/quote]

Humanities magnet is very one sided….. only about humanities, most humanities kids don’t challenge themselves in any other subject besides English and social studies classes. Majority don’t take any challenging science or math classes. The humanities house is considered the “npc” magnet bc no one talks about it or it doesn’t have any real impact on other students or the school. Just repeating back what my kid told me about the program. Kid is a rising senior in global program.[/quote]

This is completely untrue according to DD. Humanities kids are very much an equal presence in the school. They were many humanities kids in my child's honors math class and they are leaders in many clubs, a huge presence on sports teams, and take AP science classes. Your global child won't see them in science because global is cohorted for science. Is your global child mostly in stem activities? If so you might not see humanities students and might have a skewed impression of the school.[/quote]
