I'm wondering if the reason there was no movement is that kids that live within the boundary for a TAG middle school don't need to do the lottery to get space into the TAG program. Maybe because they get automatic entry to the TAG middle schools, the specialty office can't offer any additional spaces to lottery families because they need to save space and see how many of the neighborhood kids register before going through the waitlist.[/quote]

TAG identified kids who live in bounds for the TAG MS Magnet still need to apply for the lottery to get a slot if they are not getting continuity to MS through attending a TAG magnet ES.  i.e. you can live inbounds at Kenmoor and may not be able to attend the TAG stream even if you are TAG identified.

So I got some information from someone in PGCPS TAG program.

This year, the kids with continuity from the TAG ES centers fill all the seats at Kenmoor (120).
IF a seat opens up, TAG identified kids who live in bounds at Kenmoor get first consideration.
Then the spots go to the lottery.

If you live in bounds for Greenbelt, I would call the TAG coordinator and ask.
