[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are we implementing new regional magnets by high school around the same time we’re changing the boundaries for some high school clusters? Shouldn’t the boundaries be finalized before we divvy up magnet regions by high school? Changing boundaries, high school programs, and grading policies all within a relatively short time frame will make it impossible to discern the impact of any one of these changes.

Is there a reason why we are we creating more magnets instead of taking a more measured approach, like expanding seats at current magnets or offering a few magnet courses at other high schools before rolling out the entire magnet curriculum?

This feels like a frenetic, “let’s throw spaghetti at the wall and see what sticks” kind of shakeup rather than a well thought out, multistep, long range plan.[/quote]

MCPS is doing a million things at once,  revamping with a chainsaw instead of a scalpel. It’s oddly similar to current DOGE style of break everything and rebuild.
