[quote=Anonymous]A friend who works in MCPS admin told me the middle school portable magnet classes vary across the county, and are better implemented in the downcounty consortium - kids in the portable magnets at those schools (for example SSIMS and Sligo) are getting an enriched experience closer to Eastern and Takoma. In contrast, parents in wealthier parts of the county all insist their kids be in the portable magnets. More kids end up in those portable magnet classes and the curriculum gets watered down in order to meet the needs of the average students in those classes. As a result, the truly advanced kids in certain parts of the county don't get the challenge they need.[/quote]
