[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I am not sure why people seem to be being willfully obtuse about your question.  I suspect that the magnets developed as they did so that the magnet kids would necessarily have a significant number of classes with the home school kids.  People think that is beneficial academically at least for the home school kids, and socially perhaps for everyone. It might have been a political compromise to get magnets at all.

OP - I don't want to get into RMIB vs. Blair discussion but just wanted to let you know IB kids end up going all different directions after HS. A number of DC's friends end up at MIT/Cornell (engineering) as well as soft majors at other top tier schools (these kids are most likely Wall street bound). But, many, ended up at UMD with a full ride scholarship majoring from history, english, business, engineering, physics...etc. IB kids go all different directions. [/quote]
