Admitting that even with many regions and many regional programs they won't have enough seats to meet all the kids who qualify. [/quote]

Wow, you go MCPS! You have managed to state the obvious truth instead of stating an obvious lie![/quote]

Yup. I missed anything about reserved seats for home schools but I'm sure that's part of it too [/quote]

Oh, I'm not attending but that's one of my biggest bugaboos and I would love if someone asked about the extra seats for the host school.

Also would love if someone asked why the lowest-FARMS school in each of the 6 districts was chosen to host the humanities magnet. [/quote]

Only wealthy schools deserve in-depth humanities program. Poor schools get CTE. It's the natural order of things. And home school preference will ensure those programs are populated primarily by students who are zoned to the wealthier schools who will also have the resources to take fancy field trips and such. It's preserving inequities.[/quote]

What about biomedical science program? Is it also located in well-resourced schools? For STEM, I can see logic behind allocating them at HSs with existing resources.[/quote]

What existing resources?  None of the high schools in NEC offers in person MVC and Linear Algebra, and has very limited STEM courses.  You must be from W.[/quote]
