[quote=Anonymous]I think people are forgetting why "magnet" programs were created in the first place. In essence, magnets ARE a DEI program because they were intended to pull in highly able learners into lower SES areas to reduce segregation (like how magnets' opposite poles attract). If we want to talk about programs for highly able learners, we should probably not call them "Magnets" any more if they're not going to be located in lower SES areas and reduce integration. I am all for programs for the highly able, but separating out the programs into the zones is the opposite of the intent of DEI from an SES perspective. [/quote]
