[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This region has astronomically more qualified kids than seats.[/quote] Not quite. MCPS deliberately chose to limit the size and scope of the Magnet program. They could very easily designate more CES classrooms at local schools, use that additional capacity to offload the 97% percentile and under, then use the Magnet slots for those that are truly 98-99th as pull-outs. The question you should be asking is why they didn't do that.[/quote] The seats issue is one of the availability of qualified and willing teachers. Why has Eastern’s magnet seen three 7th grade SS teachers in 3 years? And a few years back, they had to repeatedly replace the 6th grade SS teachers? That’s just one program. [/quote]
