[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The best ones they can afford. A large percentage of the magnet students go to UMD.[/quote] And even UMBC too [/quote] Yep. UMD and UMBC. Good programs in state tuition. [/quote] How many a year get into UMD CP from magnet? How many a year get into UMBC from magnet? Do they track post bac plans or education levels of those who were at Blair Magnet? Like do they go to UMDCP and continue to graduate programs and if so, where do they end up for grad school? Or do they enter the workforce full time?[/quote] This is WAY too much. Stop. Don’t send your kid to the magnet. At the presentation, Ostrander even says, we don’t share where kids go from here. We care about giving them a phenomenal high school experience. And they do! The education my kid got was amazing. And he had fun! The kids will go where they’re going to go. I will say, that when my son heard about how are it was to get into UMDCP, he asked a teacher who said, for you guys, UMDCP is a safety. And it seemed to hold true. They all get in if they have good grades and test scores. They do college level research between 11th and 12th grade! Anyway, stop asking about grad school and all that. Your child is 14! Just do the next right thing for your kid. If he or she WANTS to go to the magnet, send them and they’ll have fun and learn a bunch and be wildly prepared for whatever comes next. [/quote]
