[quote=Anonymous][/quote] Right, but it seems as though one side effect of this new evaluation system is that more lower income, URM kids will end up in the magnet program. Not a bad thing, IMO, but it does likely leave a bunch of smart kids underserved at their home schools. Really, the best answer seems to be to expand tracking in classes, so even if a kid doesn't make the cut for the magnet program, he/she will still be able to have accelerated/enriched instruction for most, if not all, of ES and MS. [/quote] Unfortunately, fact is that MCPS is suffering from billions of budget cut so expanding accelerated/enriched instructions in local schools is technically day-dreaming. Then rich and high-educated people start to think of moving out of the county, house price declines and less property tax, and more deficit of education budget. So on and so forth. [/quote]
