[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Thanks everyone, and particularly this poster. The direct comparison is helpful. [b]I hadn't really realized that the magnet would take up the electives.[/b] My kid really isn't humanities oriented. He's a bright kid, and he'll work hard on whatever assigned, but [b]it sounds like time on reading and writing would replace classes he's more interested in like art or computer science or Spanish, and that the increased homework might prevent him from continuing things he does by choice. [/b] People mention diversity as having pros and cons, but I think the communities served by Sligo and Eastern are pretty similar. Have you found that to be true? Transportation is less of an issue for us than it is for more distant families. [/quote] This is why we decided not to send DC to Eastern. I think it can be amazing for the right kid, but that doesn’t mean it’s right for every bright kid. [/quote]
