[quote=Anonymous][quote]So you are saying the HGC kids ended up not being able to get into middle school magnet AS WELL as high school magnets? Is it burn out? It's a long road ahead. My kid just got accepted and I rather that he play not and worry about academics later. Would not prefer burn out.[/quote] NO! Just saying that I personally know kids who end up successful college graduates who follow all the paths: Home School-->>Home Middle School-->>Home High School-->>Huzzah! College (everywhere from U of Maryland to liberal arts colleges to Big Ten schools to Ivy League) Home School->>HGC Elementary School-->>Home Middle School-->>Home High School-->>Huzzah! College Home School->>HGC Elementary School-->>Magnet Middle School-->>Home High School-->>Huzzah! College Home School->>HGC Elementary School-->>Home Middle School-->>Magnet High School-->>Huzzah! College Home School->>HGC Elementary School-->>Magnet Middle School-->>Magnet High School-->>Huzzah! College etc. etc. etc. We shouldn't be caught up in this *one* acceptance/rejection, because there are benefits and disadvantages to every situation. In the end, any parent who's bothering to come to this forum already has a kid who is lucky and likely to be on the right side of the achievement gap. [/quote]
