[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD also was not picked for MS lottery. Our home school had several brilliant kids who all stayed back because of lottery. Now most of them have got multiple invitations,  probably highest number invited from our home middle school was from this year! Including my DD. So yes remaining back in home school didn't have a huge disadvantage, which all the parents had feared. 
But my eldest went to MS magent and now in Poolesville a day I will tell you that she had so much more awesome learning experience being in the MS magnet - overnight trip to observatory, Boston trip for a week, so many good clubs to choose from etc , all of which my youngest missed because she wasn't picked in the lottery! So it is not just about keeping scores up, it is the overall enrichment! I say put su h programs in more schools and provide access to all the kids who can handle the rigor and can benefit from enrichment! [/quote]

Agree and also getting bored at home school for three more years after elementary school is another issue. Nevertheless smart kids just get math enrichment outside while having to put up with simple easy math classes at school. [/quote]
