[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It might not be "fair", but it is incredibly tough to get into these programs. There are usually 6 or 7 x the number of applicants as spaces. So, we are DCC, but we were unable to get in to any of the magnet programs for MS - none of the lottery, and neither of the application programs. So we are left with our cruddy home school, or go to private. Most in our neighborhood go to private. At least those in other parts of the county have real options.[/quote] +1. Both of my kids are in magnets, but I recognize that had things gone differently on testing day, they could very easily not have been admitted - and our home school, especially for middle school, is not acceptable. Sorry, but I think it is completely fair given the school situation here in eastern MoCo. [/quote]
