[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your child "went" through TPMS your child was under the old application system in which most of the kids at TPMS came from a few schools. The current TPMS 8th and 7th grade were selected under universal screening with Cogat. In that group right now there are very few kids who are in a higher math and they are from all many schools in the county mostly non Ws. I think they may all be from different schools.[/quote] There are very few slots in TPMS and many kids who are smart and should go don't get offered slots. It is the other school's way of enticing kids to stay at the home school or offer more advanced as they don't have "honors" or "gifted" classes.[/quote] Correct Universal screening resulted in a much higher caliber student than the old system that typically only had 800 applicants whose parents knew to apply.[/quote]
