You sound as bad as the board members just throwing "what ifs" up there to see what sticks.  
As much as some of you are hoping, the school will not be a magnet.  It may have some sort of academy courses at some point, but there is no way they get all that organized for the start of the 2026 school year.  It will be a traditional school with only 9th and 10th graders to start, and they'll struggle with even the logistics for that.  They won't even seriously work on any academy stuff until all the regular school through 12th grade is sorted out.[/quote]

DP. I’m old enough to remember when people on DCUM confidently scolded everyone who dared talk about the possibility of a magnet/academy based on news articles with quotes from the school board members that discussed it as a possibility.

I’m not sure what the school will end up as, but I am confident that bold statements proclaiming that the school definitely won’t be a magnet are misguided. That may be your desire, but any confidence in that outcome should have died after last week’s work session.[/quote]

Sadly, I agree.  It should be a traditional school, but with this crew.......[/quote]
