[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you who say the HGC was a 'life changer' for your child, what did you choose for MS & HS? And, if you chose the magnets, were you even remotely close to them? Or did you just 'bite the bullet' on a long commute both directions daily for 7 years for your child because it was a better academic match. If you returned to your district schools, were your child's needs still met there?[/quote] just so you know....the Middle School and High School magnets are not automatic for HCG students or anyone, for that matter. It's a separate application process during 5th grade for Middle, and very competitive. A significant number of HCG students DON'T get in the MS magnet, and then return to the home middle school or evaluate other options. And high school magnets are again a separate process, so if your kid is in 3rd grade, you can't assume he/she will be in Magnets through high school. [/quote]
