Drawing students to East Garner Middle

Will they leave western Wake to go to East Garner Middle School?

That's one of the questions that the school system will find out during next year's magnet application period. School administrators say the magnet draw area for East Garner will be enlarged to include Cary and Apex.

Now that it's official that Daniels Middle School is losing its magnet program, East Garner could get an even larger share than planned.

Trying to save Daniels' magnet program

The magnet parents at Daniels Middle School made an unsuccessful pitch to the school board today to save its magnet program.

These parents, from Cary and Apex, were miffed when told by the board that the Oct. 7 decision to demagnetize Daniels was final. They questioned how such an important decision could be made before giving the public a chance to comment.

The Daniels' parents are being treated differently than those at Lincoln Heights, Olds, Root and Wake Forest elementary schools when they were demagnetized.
