[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. How does one get their child into a magnet? I don't know if my child is that bright but they don't really talk about magnet admissions at our school. I'm sorry if I come off as a snob. I'm really not--just stupid for having bought into the reputation of the Whitman cluster. [/quote] There are several different magnets with different entry points: 4th grade for Highly Gifted Centers, the middle school math/science and humanities magnets, and high school math/science, communications and IB magnets. These are the test-in programs: kids apply in the fall before entry year, submit a package with transcript, teacher recs and essays, and all applicants take a test in December. If you want to know more, I think there's a lot about the processes in the DCUM archives.[/quote]
