[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If MCPS's goal is to stop fighting for seats for magnet programs, it can just add programs. It does not need to enact a regional model.[/quote]

Or, they can have advanced and equal course offerings at all schools.[/quote]

Equality is not equitable. [/quote]

What is the context for your comment? Maybe it’s not serious. I think having advanced and equal course offerings at all schools would be both equal and equitable. More importantly, we could dispense with either word and call it fair. [/quote]

I am entirely serious. Let's take a look at regional IB programs (NOT Richard Montgomery), beginning on testing results starting at Table D3.

Compare BCC results and for example, Springbrook results. Equal IB programs, but not equal results. Now I ask you to reflect on why that occurs.[/quote]

BCC has a foundation that spends close to a quarter of a million dollars a year on academic support for students.

Put that kind of money into Watkins Mill and see what happens. [/quote]

Where does the foundation get the money?  [/quote]
