[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just have to say this. I hate the lottery. I hate a system that keeps my 260+ MAP-M/R scoring, straight A kid out of the MS Magnet program. MCPS sucks. [/quote] No, it doesn’t suck. It’s a *public* school system; its goals are to meet the needs of as much of the public as possible. People at either are extreme are usually going to have the most mismatch, with the ones at the lower end suffering the most. My high-percentile scoring, straight A kid didn’t get in either. Oh well.[/quote] A public school system should aim to give kids an education. It should give accelerated / magnet education only to the brightest kids. [/quote]
