[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I found this info really fascinating.  Any thoughts on what it means for the implications for the new regional magnets?

It’s interesting that Northwood has the most students leaving for countywide programs (232). I wonder if that’s an increase due to the holding school being incomplete and so far away from the actual school boundary.

Also, as somebody said in another thread, is the end goal to have the same number of kids entering a school for a special program as are leaving the school to attend a different program in another building?[/quote]
And that won't happen.  What they are actually trying to achieve is for students to NOT want to go to other programs and just stay at the home school that offers some program.

[b]There are only two STEM magnets, and Wootton sends a whopping 105 to Blair, but 0 to &lt; 10 to the other STEM magnets.

Some of it is due to proximity, but largely, IMO, it's due to the classes that are offered.[/b]

FWIW, my kids didn't/don't go to Blair magnet, but I don't think MCPS will be able to recreate Blair magnet and all of its very advanced course offerings at other schools.  I'll say again - finding  STEM teachers is difficult, even more so for these very advanced magnet level classes.

The programs will be watered down, and it will be a &quot;magnet&quot; in name only.[/quote]
Well, your opinion is worthless and useless. 
Wootton is not eligible for the other STEM magnet. [/quote]
Oh, but your opinions are worthy and useful. LOL[/quote]

True facts are more worthy than opinions based on ignorant misunderstanding. [/quote]
What true fact did you provide that is worthy of you posting?   You provided no true facts, just your opinion about my post.[/quote]
