[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is kind of ironic that this county's parents fight so hard to get into magnet high schools, have endless battles over admissions standards, which test to use or not, and [b]then realize four years later that they've put themselves into a worse position than if they'd just let their kid be a great student at their home school.[/b] Only do the magnet if it has something your kid can't get at the neighborhood school. Don't do it for "the cohort" [/quote] Not at all. My DC wanted and needed the Blair magnet classes, and excelled in them. It was a fantastic high school experience he would never have had anywhere else. "Worse position"? In what way?[/quote]
