[quote=Anonymous]Apparently the situation is: TPMS gets the 25 seats because they are hosting the magnet program and it does not take away seats from students from other home-schools (because logistically these 25 students can be considered still using local resources). As for the question of whether they "deserve" to be in the program, let's put it this way: There are many more kids that "deserve" to get in the program but can't due to the limited seats. So do locals at TPMS get more seats than from other MS? probably yes. That only means that in TPMS, a larger number of "deserved" kids get it. And of course they do not fall behind in the program. There are simply too many "deserved" kids being left out elsewhere. Of course, it does not suggest, on the other hand, that TPMS kids do better than out-bound kids.[/quote]
