[quote=Anonymous]The magnet programs at all levels are outstanding. Unfortunately, for ES and MS you can only access them through a lottery so the vast majority of qualified students can’t join the programs, which have limited seats. MCPS is about to change the upper ES/MS math pathways soon, so that’s up in the air. And they are completely changing MS and HS magnets, as well, probably making more seats available but somewhat watered down programs, staff, and student criteria. No one knows what the outcomes will be, so any info we have on current programs will be obsolete by Fall 2027. The curricular opportunities and enriched/accelerated offerings at regular home schools exist, but don’t really meet the needs of gifted students much of the time, particularly in middle school which is the weak link.
