[quote=Anonymous][quote]The whole process stinks. Last year 2 kids from our home school got in, and 3 more 99%ers (that I know of) were waitlisted. One who didn't get in originally had a mother who was able to pull strings to get her child in. MCPS does a huge disservice to bright kids who are ready to be challenged but for whatever reason are locked out of the CES.

Don't be that person. Spreading rumors because you're jealous is really ugly. Kids don't get into the CES under the new system because parents pull strings.

Um, I know one who did, a 4th grader this year, and I am not the PP.

Pulled strings as in use the legal process of appeals and sending in supplemental information? OP can do that as well.

Nope, she did not use the appeals process to get her child in.  I will not detail her steps here because I know the insanely competitive parents here will try to follow her lead.

I'm not going to report it because I'm putting my time and energy into advocating for better middle and high school programs that my children may actually have a chance to benefit from.  The elementary school CES is water under the bridge now.[/quote]
