Admitting that even with many regions and many regional programs they won't have enough seats to meet all the kids who qualify. [/quote]

Wow, you go MCPS! You have managed to state the obvious truth instead of stating an obvious lie![/quote]

Yup. I missed anything about reserved seats for home schools but I'm sure that's part of it too [/quote]

Oh, I'm not attending but that's one of my biggest bugaboos and I would love if someone asked about the extra seats for the host school.

Also would love if someone asked why the lowest-FARMS school in each of the 6 districts was chosen to host the humanities magnet. [/quote]

I asked about this and the way it was answered, my understanding is that they will set aside local seats for criteria-based schools. [/quote]

Thanks for asking and posting the response!

I guess as to fairness, it'll all be in the actual numbers ... does the host school get 1/3 of the seats, or 1/5? Is it a min or max, or both?
Not sure why they can't just put all the kids in the region in the same pool and however it shakes out, it shakes out.[/quote]

And risk a Rockville kid getting a seat at a Wooton program that a Wooton kid wanted? Never![/quote]
