[quote=Anonymous][quote]? I'm talking about how the change in selection (using peer cohort, which is also used in ES selection) has changed the caliber of students in the magnet programs. Again, the changes didn't just affect MS. The article referenced a teacher in an ES, not MS.[/quote] The article didn't do anyone any favors by confusing these two issues, and by conflating the reaction from a teacher at a newly formed LOCAL CES with changes to admissions at the middle school. Of course the standards are going to be lower at a local CES than a regional one. Of course they are. But is that a bad thing? People keep saying there aren't enough spots for all the gifted kids in MCPS, and moving from the "top" 3 percent to the "top" 20 percent. [/quote]
