[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Also, do you know whether the placement rate from Diamond to a local CES center been affected by the "peer group" measures? What about Lakelands to Clemente? Northwest to Poolesville?[/quote]

Nope -only Wootton MS feeders Frost and Cabin John were blocked from the DCC middle school magnets.

NW cluster doesm't have the same number of high scoring students. This is anecdotal only but I have heard that it is easier to get into Poolesville or Richard Montgomery magnet programs. We know several people who live in Darnestown with older kids and all their kids have gone to one of the magnets. Smart kids but not genius level or anything. Wootton families don't apply in high numbers since Wootton already has top students/classes so why bother with a long bus ride. I don't know why more people from QO don't apply. Have heard that Clemente isn't that rigorous so maybe some people don't think the magnets are worth pursuing again in high school. Just a guess. [/quote]

One hot summer’s day a fox was strolling through an orchard till he came to a bunch of grapes just ripening on a vine which had been trained over a lofty branch. “Just the things to quench my thirst,” quoth he. Drawing back a few paces, he took a run and a jump, and just missed the bunch. Turning round again with a One, Two, Three, he jumped up, but with no greater success. Again and again he tried after the tempting morsel, but at last had to give it up, and walked away with his nose in the air, saying: “I am sure they are sour.”[/quote]
