[quote=Anonymous]It wasn’t a magnet program when most of the students were coming from one middle school. It makes sense to keep those students at their home school and reserve magnet seats for those with fewer peers. The peer cohort at the home middle school should receive adequate instruction. But it will never be enough for some parents who viewed the magnet program as a prize and feel robbed of the “magnet label”. Also the program as it was prior to these changes was not serving the brightest students. I laugh when I read parents here saying the magnet program no longer serves the highest achievers. It never did, folks. It was serving the students whose parents referred. It wasn’t perfect before. [/quote]
