[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, well that is what I am trying to understand. With the knowledge I have, and based on my discussions with parents of selected, non selected, school councilors, coordinators, I have come to the conclusion that there are some factors other than the academics are considered by the screening committee [b]which leads to not a perfect selection. [/b]Having said this, again I am not upset or unhappy, as DC is one of the finest hard working student and am certain will excel in academics in home school. I wanted to debate my thoughts of how I understand the magnet admissions with other forum members. So thank you all. [/quote] OP, there is no such thing as "a perfect selection". They get lots of applications from kids who are basically equally well-qualified and would do equally well in the program. They can only admit a small fraction of those kids. For whatever reason -- NOT including that your kid goes to a middle school in Bethesda -- your kid wasn't among the admitted. That's how it is. Nonetheless, your kid will excel at the home school; that's great.[/quote]
