[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We received two emails directly to our email addresses (both parents), yesterday from Eastern and today from Takoma Park. Nothing has been posted anywhere in ParentVUE. We have until Monday to decide by filling out a google form.[/quote]

Wow, that’s pretty insane luck to win the lottery for both schools on a waitlist round which has presumably way fewer seats bouncing around. We were lottery losers but have a few friends who accepted spots last year. The vibe we’ve gotten is the math/sci/comp sci is great at TKPK but the other courses not so great, same spiel but the reverse for Eastern, and the kids we know all had rougher social starts to middle school than the kids who matriculated to home school middle schools. Lots of HW at Eastern. [/quote]

I have a kid at TPMS and do not agree with that assessment. The non magnet teachers are without exception excellent too.[/quote]

Same and we've been really impressed with the overall quality of the school as a whole. [/quote]

That’s great. It’s entirely possible the friends were trying to be humble/not brag to us since our child didn’t have luck with the lottery and theirs did. [/quote]
