[quote=Anonymous]"Test-in" does not mean "true magnet". You muddy the discussion when you don't use terms correctly. "Test-in" is one kind of magnet school. "City-wide lottery" is another kind of magnet school. Anyway, if politicians can't stomach a test in middle school magnet, they could replicate what some of the charters do to have an academically ambitious group of self selected students: teach Latin, lots of homework,, frequent exams and projects, high level courses. And the DCPS magnet school could reserve the right to return kids to their inboundary school if certain academic standards are not met. Yes, agreed, this is not as efficient as a test in middle school, but may be more politically palatable?[/quote]
