[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]these schools you want to turn into magnets or whatever-how's that supposed to work?[/quote] DCPS has talked about a middle school magnet EOTR for at least 5 years. Hasn't happened yet. I think what people on this thread probably want is something that would serve about 300 middle schoolers and mimics the SWW HS admissions process -- such as a minimum of 4 on PARCC ELA and Math from 4th grade; an admissions test. In operation it would be a middle school version of Yale/jail in their minds. [/quote] It would have to be a real STEM focused test in best and brightest program to attract kids from WOTP. Other wise it would simply end up like Banneker which is more a “get away from the neighbor kids” magnet. [/quote] Why do you assume that a STEM focused school needs to attract kids from WOTP. There are enough talented kids EOTP and EOTR to fill several magnets.[/quote]
