DD brought home an information sheet today about a magnet program for enhanced studies. This is where she would then go to high school and not our "home school" which is a five minute walk.
If your child is involved in this type of program can you please let me know how you feel he/she is benefitting.
Thanks,

Rach brought home some magnet school enrollment info 2 wks ago but told me she isn't interested in going cuz she wants to stay w/her friends. Our school district has a math, aerospace & language arts magnet program. In addition the MS int'l baccalaureate pgm is starting up (right now there is only HS IB programs). I know some people that have children in the math & language arts magnet pgms & say it was wonderful for their kids as their kids were bored by the regular curriculum.

Does your school district have informational meetings so you can find out about the application process & transportation options? I think if you live out of the area for the magnet pgms the parents are responsible for arranging transportation in our school district.
