[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just FYI as it's a bit related to this topic: I noticed this testimony from last night's board meeting.  In a quick glance thru looks like the cluster rep is trying to help but is up against a push to 'fix' the IB program by making it available in more locations.

I think it will weaken RM.  They will no longer be choosing from the whole county.  While it might be good for the county over all, [b]it is not good for RM[/b] IB...unless they are zoned for all the W schools.[/quote]

The panic in RM cluster is exactly for this reason. You can hear it in the Cluster Coordinator's testimony above. Where was he when the RM Principal was assaulting the integrity of magnet program by admitting more and more cluster students every year to RM IB without any screening?[/quote]

Switching to regional programs certainly does diminish RM, but it never was truly pulling from the entire county given plenty of students would never apply to a school so far from home.[/quote]
