[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s force the entire county be divided into consortiums. No reason schools like Sherwood and WJ can stay out of the NEC and the DCC. [/quote]

They're going to do this but call them regions instead. Each region will have special programs.[/quote]

Yes, this seems to be the direction Taylor wants to go in. Hopefully the consortiums are smaller than the DCC. [b]I think the DCC doesn't work so great great because it's too big. If there are more than 3 high schools in the consortium, it's too big.[/b][/quote]
Who said the DCC doesn't work so great?[/quote]

Many people. Who said it works great?[/quote]

Many people.  If you want to go to your home Hs no one is stopping you.[/quote]

And if you don't want to go to your home school, you're essentially subjected to a lottery which does not work in your favor.[/quote]

Isn't this the same situation you would be in if there was no consortium, though?  [/quote]
If there was no consortium PP would be stuck with a home school they don’t want and no other choices except for magnets.[/quote]

I am the PP and you’re right. But the key is that then all the other STEM kids would also be at Einstein, and it would be easier to advocate for advanced programming.  Removing 70% of STEM kids really sucks for the 30% left behind.  [/quote]

Consortium system is hugely negative for kids who are left behind.
