[quote=Anonymous]Now though... Well, now we don't have any alternatives except leaving the system. MCPS has one point of entry for the magnets and only that. "Advanced English" and "advanced world studies" seem to focus on making the students regurgitate one page essays in a precise format for structure, but not for grammar. My kid had "could of" and "ment" on the last paper and they weren't marked wrong. But points were taken off putting the explanatory quotes after the points they were supporting and not before.[/quote]
