[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe this is a dumb point, but assuming the county is buying a new curriculum that offers some more differentiation, doesn’t it stand to follow that whatever they implement next year (with very little teacher training if any) will then be phased out within two years? I’m not saying you shouldn’t want your kid to take it but still...[/quote]

Not a new curriculum - based on the curriculum at the MSMC. If you read the description of the classes, sounds very similar to World Studies at Eastern and Math at TPMS.  Not reinventing the wheel.[/quote]
DP.. No, the ^PP is referring to the new curriculum MCPS is getting to replace 2.0. I would assume (dangerous word) that whatever curriculum they develop for the magnets based on this new curriculum, will be implemented in the other MS, but again, big assumption.   Actually, I have a feeling that they will drop the "enriched" curriculum in the other MS after a couple of years of the new replacement of 2.0 curriculum has been implemented, and not even bother implementing an "enriched" one anymore.  I get a sense that this move is to just placate the parents of those who didn't get in because of the "cohort" nonsense.[/quote]

That’s what it is. It’s a response to lawsuit threats. [/quote]
