If 10,000 TP residents control MoCo, it's either TP reflects the county as a whole (not any particular neighborhood) or their mafia is really good. But of course anyone using "woke lunatic" has an agenda more nefarious. |
It's that 2nd one. And it's called the Democrat Machine which in MoCo is controlled be progressives. Hopefully the moderate Dems in MoCo will wake up and start voting for non-socialists. How we ever let that happen is a complete mystery to me. |
I think the "Democratic machine" is part of the explanation, but not in a nefarious way. Political parties are organizations, and you can't just parachute into an organization and ask to be given a leadership role. So, east county Democrats are, for whatever reason, more likely to have been involved in the party and therefore more likely to get support from the "machine." So, if you are a moderate Democrat and you think you want to run for an at-large seat in the County Council, find out when the MoCo Dems meet and start volunteering. In 3-5 years you'll have the relationships you need to make your run. |
FFS, you’ve said this three times now and no one gave you any attention so you’re back. No takoma park schools are not going to be “integrated” with schools in another county so you can keep your racist “MS-13” references for another day. |
So you support segregation. Huh. |
p.s. do you not believe in MS-13? The MoCo and PGCo police sure do. They are already in east MoCo schools. Imagine how many more are in PGCo schools. |
keep replying to your self but the common cohort you claim is like 5% of Blair as a whole. The school's SAT is among the lowest in the county. You if you cherry pick your test takers and them put them up against entire schools you will get a measure that you like. But if you just look at school's student body it kind of sucks compered to the county as a whole. #allfactsmatter |
Agreed. Greatschools didn't give it a 4 for nothing. |
Since you're so committed to facts, here are some mistakes in your post that you'll want to correct: No, Blair's SAT is not "among the lowest in the county." In the linked report, the overall mean SAT for Blair is 1142, which is higher than 60% of the schools. And no, the "common cohort" [white students] is not "like 5% of Blair as a whole." Blair's white student population in 2017 (the year the report was written) was 22.3%. |
Oh, so the chart above should have looked like: Walter Johnson 1275 Wootton 1262 Churchill 1257 Blair 1142 That's different isn't it? Typical east county progressive dishonesty. Reminds me of the way another (or maybe it's you) corrupt east county progressive made diversity the top factor in the boundary policy. She pushed these changes through the BOE without notifying the public. She did, however, manage to tell all her Facebook friends and encouraged them to comment so it looked like there was support for changes that had were voted down hard just a few months prior. Moderate Dems better wake up to progressive dishonesty here in MoCo before they destroy the county. |
Sigh. No, your chart is not correct. The previous poster's chart was correct, based on the numbers for white students. Blair's 1326 number is correct for that chart. Separately, you suggested that Blair's overall numbers were "among the lowest in the county." That was false. |
Who cares about the scores of any specific race except racists? Here are the scores for ALL students: Walter Johnson 1213 Wootton 1230 Churchill 1252 Blair 1142 And I was not the PP who said Blair had some of the lowest scores in the county. Looking at the chart, it scores 16 points above the county average. It should be noted that, as a magnet, Blair should have some of the highest scores in the county just like RM but it doesn't. |
Obviously MCPS cares--that's why the data was collected and included in the report. |
Huh? The mean scores for the Blair magnet itself are comparable to RMIB itself. Blair: 1531 RM: 1500 https://mbhs.edu/departments/counseling/MagnetProfile.pdf https://www2.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/siteassets/schools/high-schools/r-w/rmhs/ib/2020-2021-ib_insert.pdf?usp=sharing |
I meant when averaged in with the rest of the schools. |
