[quote=Anonymous]On a philosophical level, I understand why MCPS is emphasizing the need for including more minorities in the gifted education program for Montgomery county students. But as a parent of a kid who went through the magnet and who is now a senior at MIT, i feel sad that the entire purpose of the magnet is being redirected. For my kid, the magnet was life changing. THe opportunity to meet kids who are passionate about math and science and who had the opportunity to participate on the math team starting in middle school and to be inspired by classes and stimulating opportunities was a life changing experience. Would his life be ok if he hadn’t been in the magnet ... sure. But I think that Montgomery County will no longer be serving the needs of the highly gifted students in the county.[/quote]
