+1. Get rid of lottery. Make admission performance based. Forget the equity/equality bullsh*t and recognize some kids have high ceiling than others and those kids need specialized teaching. [/quote]

There will be no lotteries in the future. MCPS is moving to a regional program system with no magnet programs at the MS and HS levels for the highly able. I expect that works for most people. Probably no more CES programs at the ES levels. Give MCPS a year or two before they cancel accelerated learning throughout the system for the highly able.[/quote]

Please stop spreading misinformation.  You can critique the shift from countywide to regional magnets without lying about the magnets going away entirely.  There have also been no announcements at all about MS magnets or CES.[/quote]

You can't support magnet programs with insufficient cohort numbers, which requires areawide and countywide enrollment areas. The middle schools' magnets will be regionalized into something less than they are now beginning next year, after the HS programs are regionalized into something less than they are now. And you don't think the ES programs aren't going to be left alone.[/quote]

If they do to the MS magnets what they're planning on doing to the HS magnets it would be a huge improvement.  [/quote]
