[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While my DC is having a nice experience I think your Eastern 6th grader is out of the loop. There were just a few incidents that everyone was talking about. Just because your child is cocooned in the magnet program doesn't mean there aren't issues at the school.[/quote] Isn’t that point of magnets, getting high performers to opt into an otherwise meh school while assuring the parents protect of the kids. [b]Blair used to put the magnet kids in a different building with a different scheduled so the kids didn’t even mix in the hallways until the outcry[/b] [/quote] Not true[/quote] Yes it is, I went to Blair back then. Even when they moved to the new building they were primarily on the top floor away from the rest of the kids[/quote] X2 They even had a different lunch period. It’s mostly better now but not because of the parents of kids being bused in I suspect. [/quote] Again no. I went to Blair too. There was no different building for magnet kids. When they added/renovated the D building, the labs, computer rooms and many advanced classes were housed there. It was for everyone who has classes there. I had classes there. And lunch period had nothing with being in magnet or not. I may have lunch A first semester and then have lunch B second semester. Stop spreading lies and misinformation.[/quote] Youre wrong they had C lunch and their bell was 5 mins after everybody else had to be in class. Yes some rooms were universal like the media room, computer lab and gyms but the most kids never stepped foot in the magnet area[/quote] Again stop spreading lies and misinformation. If some kids didn't step foot there it's because they didn't have classes there, not because they were not allowed to or that the building was for magnet. Hardly anyone congregated in the hallway of that building. Everyone (magnet, non-magnet) was either in the A, B hallways, cafeteria, the courtyard or outside since it was open lunch. That hall was always empty except for when going to classes, labs and coming from them.[/quote]
