[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have SN child - GTLD with very high IQ. Generally nonviolent, but who would love to misbehave if he gets support of class or another clown. Why not to have fun instead of studying if teacher lets it go or cannot control class? He will use absolutely every opportunity due to immaturity. The only environment this kid can learn is regular magnet (not GTLD one). The reason is - magnet kids are more accommodating and pushing this kid to learn instead of fulling around with other clowns all day. Basically in any non-magnet class my child goes for lowest common denominator in work and behavior. This is in support that mixing kids is really bad idea. If you will put my child in mixed class, he will learn nothing... On the other hand he is not disruptive in magnet environment. He is absolutely disruptive (non-violently) in regular environment. For us magnet is life saver, otherwise my child would get nothing out of public education in MCPS. I am sure that there are many kids like mine, but most of them did not get to magnet. Probably most of them are fulling around our public systems and will end up with zero knowledge. [/quote I don't see why they would waste a magnet slot on your problem child taking it away from some kid who isn't a PITA. You have a fancy label for your child but a brat by any other name is still a brat. [/quote] My child is not a brat, he is SN child diagnosed by several medical professionals including MCPS own psychologist, and he is not wasting anybody spot. He gets good grades and education. Or do you believe that I do not pay taxes? Do you think magnets for elitist straight A students? Furthermore, he got to MS magnet (prior to stupid quotas) without any accommodations. Child is already in HS. All teachers agree that he belongs to magnet. Do you know that many inventions and science discoveries were done by SN people? Get a life hater![/quote] And you go learn some English, dimwit![/quote]
