[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, that's 5 invited to Blair SMCS. Not sure about RMIB.[/quote]

That is an unusually small number.  I would suspect there are a lot more, but maybe kids are just not talking about it.[/quote]

My TPMS 8th grader who got into SMCS says they personally know of about 20 classmates who got in too. There could be more but they don't have that info.[/quote]

NP. I'm not surprised. It's a great program. I'm sure there are alot of sour grapes posters out there trying to vilify the cohort because their kid wasn't invited that year. [/quote]
I'm a sour grape, because we didn't 'win' the lottery  :roll:[/quote]

My point exactly.  All the more reason these folks want to paint the kids who did as somehow inferior.[/quote]

Sometimes it is the truth. There are kids who have MAP M of 280+ at 5th grade didn’t get picked for Takoma Park but their classmates who have MAP M of 230-240 get picked. You can call their parents sour grapes but they do feel the magnet selection lottery is not fair.[/quote]
