[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 99 percentile straight A kid was kept out of the ms magnets due to the "peer cohort" rationale. The problem was they made no effort to group the these peer cohorts at CJMS, even in the enriched social studies classes, which were very large. Even more than curriculum, this was a big negative for DC. The only positive I can say is that it was three years of easy As and no stress. So, a break before returning to a magnet in hs. Even though bored and disengaged in most classes, DC now says didn't mind having that break, and did not have much trouble readjusting to a more rigorous course load in hs.[/quote] They didn’t group kids together in social studies at TPMS either. My kid at TPMS has had easy As too. It’s not that different.[/quote] I had kids at TPMS and a different W feeder MS, which seemed night and day. TPMS went into so much more depth. Even the non-magnet classes were excellent.[/quote]
