I know Bethesda Magazine will come out with its annual table at some point in the next few weeks but seeing the thread about TJ in VA, curious where the top students in MCPS committed to. How many students got into Ivys and SLACs from the Ws, BCC, etc?
Anyone have intel on how this year went from a macro level (not your individual student per se) |

| I think this assume parents know all this information, or that all top kids are posting on Instagram (or even have instagram). |

| Go check the Insta pages. Otherwise no one cares. We’re not out here trying to determine the post HS graduation plans of an entire district’s graduating class. |

https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/450/1244745.page the past two years, some enterprising poster compiled a list of all the high school insta pages. try to find the list posted on the later pages as it’s most up to date (more schools would be listed, correct pages). rest of thread might be interesting to you if you are looking for a long thread. for the most part, all insta handles will be similar between the years so you can find previous years if interested. |

| This lurid curiosity about which kids get into which top colleges is contributing, in part, to the deteriorating mental health of our young people. |

Done. That is where a huge percentage of MCPS grads end up when they drop out of their “dream” school. |

Ok. It’s normal. For some. OP asked about top students and while they might attend community college for personal or financial reasons, that’s unlikely to be a top pick for the best students who can get merit and financial aid. |
