[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Getting good, qualified teachers for highly motivated students is extremely difficult. It's not a matter of finding warm bodies. PHS magnet programs (minus PHS GE program) have been around 15 years or so, finding magnet teachers has always been an issue. MCPS will try to find how many now? [/quote] 4 times more. Blair SMACS cannot find a good magnet statistics teacher either after the previous one promoted to management. [/quote] And these are finer details of successful magnet program people don't fully understand - importance of cohorts, importance of teachers, importance of support structure from home (that's you parents) and kids who are driven to do well. All of these have to be lined up. While not perfect, the current program has all of these (but I think not enough good teachers is the weak link right now)[/quote]
