[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, was your kid in a magnet middle school program? Interested in how the workload compares. (Mine is and does not have a demanding workload at all, and breezes through magnet classes, so wondering if he’s just organized or if he’s in for a rude awakening if he gets in to SMCS).[/quote]

OP here. Yes, my child was at the magnet program at rcms. My child had a very easy time at rcms, maybe 1-2 hours of hw a night, if that. Did very well in middle school, yes this was very rude awakening for us.[/quote]

Hm, mine is at TPMS and I doubt he has 1-2 hours a week! Mostly he gets his homework done in between classes at school and rarely has much to do at home unless he’s really into a computer science project.[/quote]

Same here and wonder if it is always like that in TPMS or it has been watered these days.[/quote]

I have a lottery kid at TPMS and their older sibling who went through it a few years earlier under the old system. It's exactly the same. The truth is more kids can do this than there are spaces and there was no need to water anything down.[/quote]
