[quote=Anonymous]People (parents) don't understand that the work is significantly harder. Not just harder but more if it. You must also weigh if being the top matters- the whole 'big fish in a small pond'. Few are the standouts in the MS & HS magnets as each of these kids WERE the standouts in their ES. Harder to be the best when everyone is. And let's be clear, the 'chosen' few are in the highest math. Some kids just are better than others. TPMS is fantastic, but it's hard. It's far & hard. You must take those into account. If you go from TPMS to say Blair as a 9th grader - math currently has around 25 in Functions, most are in Mag Pre Cal, and the lesser good kids are in Mag Geometry. 1/3 of the kids in Functions drop it as they are failing - and these kids are the few deemed good enough to take it. The teacher is a killer. It too is a great school but it is hard. [/quote]
