[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS documents clearly state that seats were allocated differently, with more directed toward students assigned to lower performing MSs. For Eastern and Takoma Park, 75 seats went to non-CES kids, 25 to CES kids. Anyone who thinks that ratio makes sense based on purely objective criteria is smoking something.[/quote]

Well, it’s gotta be healthier than smoking sour grapes...[/quote]

Their post literally doesn’t add up since there are around 220 to 240 total seats at eastern and Takoma. Without a credible source iit appears they’re making up numbers to suit their narritive of choice and lend credit to unproven conspiracy theories. [/quote]

Maybe the PP is confused about numbers vs. percents.

But yes, I agree. Obviously everybody who wants to maximize their child's chances for the math/science middle school magnet program should move to the Takoma Park service area - or the Roberto Clemente service area![/quote]

Do schools other than TPMS have an in-boundary set-aside? Also, the county should continue to improve homeschool enrichment as a viable alternative because it's less expensive to implement than busing kids around and there are so many kids who don't make the cut but could easily do the work...[/quote]
