[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am one of the posters that defended the TPMS parent with the inbound kid accepted to the magnet program. While I don't think (or rather hope) the "bitterness" from the negative posts are directed at the parent, [b]the real travesty is the sheer incompetence of MCPS. For the amount of money that MCPS has, the fact that enriched curriculum is offered to only a select few makes absolutely no sense. [/b]

There is a definite 2 tier system of middle schools - schools that nurture students that need that enrichment and those that completely ignore them. I can totally understand why parents that end up in schools where their high performing kids get ignored are upset when factors like a lottery is  the only way to get into the "other" tier school.

MCPS needs to step up its game badly![/quote]

This is spot and should be pinned to the MCPS forum. Also, I will add that MCPS is not transparent about how kids are admitted to the magnets causes a lot of unnecessary consternation. They should make it public-- list the students who were admitted. [/quote]
