[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has Blair's magnet and RM's IB program been cancelled or reduced to students in their respective new regions?[/quote]

Both are gone as full county magnets. Instead, each region will have anIB program.[/quote]
Blair Magnet was not countywide. [/quote]

:roll:

If you're going to keep posting that Blair SMCS is not a full county program, you need to say that it covers about 2/3 of the county, where Poolesville SMCS covers the rest.  In leaving that bit out, you leave the incorrect impression that its being "regional" is the same as the way it would be regional with the new plan, when the draw, instead, would be from about a quarter of the present population.

That may be a good thing, as long as the program doesn't get watered down as a result and as long as the new STEM magnets replicate the depth and breadth of the Blair SMCS program.[/quote]

All of the programs will be watered down. Just take a look at the regional IB programs. You also won’t have enough trained teachers for all of these programs.[/quote]
