[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I perosnally don't get the logic of reserving seats for home school. It puts kids from other schools at disadvantage. No one should have reserved seats. [/quote]

It's just ridiculous to have that in regional model. Any kid in region should have equal chance to get a seat in regional program and it should have nothing to do with if they get lucky with home school having some specific program. Entire region should be at equal footings.

I wonder if this reservation system has to do with MCPS trying to figure out transportation routes/capacity in the new regions/regional programming. This is the weakest link in an initiative full of weak links.

It will spell disaster for the community. Here is a look at what happened at Thomas Taylor's last school district, which was left to pick up the pieces after he introduced regional programming at the school districts FOUR high schools, and then left to take the job with MCPS. Now imagine what will happen in a school district the size of MCPS.

Whatever be the reaosn, I don't like to see reserve for this or reserve for that. All kids should be at equal footings when it cmes to getting a seat. kids are not chosing which program gets assigned to specific school. They shouldn't be penalized for program not being in their home shcool. I am in RM cluster and I never liked the idea of RM kids getting resrved seat in RM IB magnet.[/quote]

Oh wow I didn’t know that about RMIB, that’s terrible. That could be fixed next year.[/quote]

Yes, it should be fixed immediately. No point in providing reservation of seats for anyone. [/quote]
