Why did they say about the MSMC - MS magnet consortium? My kid loves Loiederman and I hope DC gets to stay there through
8th (in 6th now).

Don't forget that it's not just >85%, but >85% locally normed, which raises the bar. Seriously, don't give it a second thought without an invitation in hand. The odds are so low that it's not worth your attention until it's worth your attention - at which point you will also be weighing commute and social environment, too.
It actually lowers the bar, but maybe you meant that more people should be paying attention?

If you want to attend and don't have the link, call AEI and ask for them to invite you, in case it is not recorded (don't know whether it will be).

It's a meeting of the AEI council, but the Eastern magnet coordinator sent an email with the zoom link inviting Eastern parents. Seems like this would also be relevant to kids who will be in the pool for the magnet, but I believe the session will be recorded.

The hours of these sort of meetings are not good for me, but I will try to listen while driving.
It looks like more than humanities magnet will be covered in the meeting.

Isn't that just for gifted advisory committee members?

No, it only impacts what a few hundred families? The rest of the kids go without gifted classes.

Meh. This is relevant for such a tiny random population.
