[quote=Anonymous]Re differentiation, in MoCo there are magnets from K-12, just not enough magnet spaces for all the kids who qualify. Within the magnets there is considerable differentiation and the opportunity to work independently- my kids have done so. The kids who get screwed are the ones who don't get into the magnets. These are the really bright kids who are now at the top of the class in their home schools, doing the regular MCPS curriculum, and being offered limited differentiation. These are the families who leave MCPS for privates in droves. The highly/profoundly gifted kids are generally OK, getting into the magnets, because they rock the entrance test and their teachers will have noticed. In DC, obviously - no magnets.[/quote]
