[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m very concerned about the expansion of the MC^2 program into more MCPS schools. While dual enrollment can be a great opportunity for individual students, my bigger concern is what happens to the schools this program spreads to. MC^2 consistently pulls out many of the highest achieving and most involved students, the same students who would normally lead SGA, participate in clubs and athletics, and help create a strong school culture. When those students are removed, the remaining school is left with fewer leaders and less academic/social momentum. As this program is set to expand to each proposed region, I worry it will slowly weaken the schools it is meant to coexist with rather than support them.[/quote] Schools and programs should be in service to the students NOT vice versa![/quote] +1 but also -- [b]the kid who are invested in a traditional HS experience with SGA and athletics and theater productions or whatever are exactly the kids who do NOT choose dual enrollment. [/b] It's the kids like my youngest, who are bright and motivated but utterly uninterested in HS social life, that are a good fit for those programs. [/quote] The MC2 class of ‘24 at Northwood proves you wrong.[/quote]
