[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do they need Teachers recommendations this year?[/quote]

No. No Teacher Recommendations, no Map-R (for SMCSM). Just 7th grades and Q1 8th grades + Map-M + essays/statements. That's it.

What I didn't understand from last night's meeting is whether or not they know if kids went to the TPMS magnet. Transcripts clearly list that the 7th grade math class was "Mag Algebra I" which is only available at TPMS. It also indicates the math class was different (2x speed + more content). Is that scrubbed to eliminate the "Mag" - I think that would be disingenuous and unfair, only because the class is materially different. The answers were unclear.

I would think they know. The transcripts say Mag Algebra etc, and I don’t think they would bother (or could bother knowing mcps's systems) to alter it. They always knew who came from TPMS in the past. Also,  only about 50 TPMS students went on to Blair magnet. Lots of kids came from other schools.

Good luck, nervous parents![/quote]
