[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The article points out that at ALL MCPS schools, even in honor classes, there’s a lack of rigor, grade level assignments, and assigned books. [/quote] But is this also true for magnet programs? I honestly don't know so I am asking. I really hope this is not the case. But what I do know is that it is an arms race to get into the magnet program. But it's very frustrating because the magnet programs seem more like a random lottery. Parents just want their kids to get a rigorous education and there are so few spots. I was prepared to hate this article but I thought it made some very valid points. I hope the Board and the County Council humbly read this and make changes.[/quote] I had a kid in a regional CES years ago and then another kid attend years later. Definitely a difference in the quality of education after the magnet became more of a lottery process.[/quote] The lottery thing is so odd[/quote]
