It seems to be the stepping stone to Blair SMCS since around 50% of the magnet kids go on to Blair's magnet.

I will also go on record and say Blair SMCS is overrated, and CAP is incoherent and overly socially justicey.

I like IB programs.

The magnet kids from outside Silver Spring make a decision about Blair with full knowledge of the commute and social aspects of a distant school. We, a long ride from TPMS, made the decision to not attend because home HS was strong and DC "knew" they wanted the home HS experience. Looking back, the cost? advantage? is now having a peer group that will not honor you if all you focus on is academic success.

It's overrated especially if you don't care about things like college admissions.

Blair envy isn’t a thing, you live in the cheapest part of close in Maryland. If any parent from any other school district not in a consortium wanted to send their kids to Blair they would have bought a cheaper house and done so. Spending hundreds of dollars to avoid Blair doesn’t speak to envy to these ears

We're zoned for Blair. Turned down CAP. Not regretting the choice. Our high school doesn't have knife fights in the parking lot. Like Blair. And Wooten.

Sure, if you're a tiger mom who's going to have a nervous breakdown in two years because Larlx (you were fine when Larlo became Larlx, how progressive of you)--when Larlx decides they want to major in Philosophy at Williams instead of engineering at Caltech.

I have popcorn.

You people (you know who you are) are petty and nasty. Terrible things to say about schools and neighborhoods that real people live in and go to.

Hilarious how sensitive you get suddenly. Let's lay odds: bet you're one of the parents saying every other school in the DCC that isn't Blair is horrible and we're all just *jealous?*

And fighting teeth and nails to send their kids to Blair. They don't want to live next to minorities but expect and love to take advantage of what minorities have to offer.
Always being the case in America.
