Its also OK to have a different priority set. You can decide that education isn't your top priority. I know people in other areas who did decide that top schools weren't their biggest priority. They wanted a bigger house and to feel like the "richer people" in the school rather than the "poorer people". They are perfectly fine and proud of this choice so more power to them. What is so strange in this area is that the people in the bad DCC schools seem to want to pretend that their schools aren't bad. They can't be that clueless, its pretty clear that Blair, Einstein and Wheaton are not strong school.

If education isn't a priority then choose Einstein or Wheaton and own your decision. You'll probably have a bigger house or feel more "on top".

If education is a priority them choose Wootton, Whitman or Churchill own your decision. You'll probably have a smaller house not feel rich.

Agree mostly here. WJ was a happy medium and that option is gone now.

Those schools are remarkably mediocre for being so segregated

What are you babbling about? They are great schools, but they’ll get dragged down (first WJ, then Wootton, and finally the others) by the demographic forces that are gradually sinking the county.

Test scores of demographic cohorts at these schools are almost identical to all other MCPS schools. The quality of education is the same. The difference is fewer low SES kids bringing down the average. So basically your idea of a good school is one that is highly segregated?

Whitman's average SAT score 1897.

Are you claiming that average SAT score for whites in non-FARMs in all MCPS schools is around 1900? I will appreciate if you can provide some links.

Ok, here, page 8: http://montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/sharedaccountability/reports/2017/1771102HS%20Princ_SAT%20Partic_Perf%20Class%20of%202017.pdf

They use new SAT scoring now. At every school in the county, the SAT scores of the white kids are within 100 points of the white kid average of 1223. So the entire range of white kids' averages is 1100-1300. This is otherwise known as about the increase associated with having taken a test prep course. So, I wouldn't use SAT scores as the reason why you should buy a $1.5 million house instead of a $500k house.

Cliff Notes: White kids at Blair have higher SAT scores than white kids at Wooton, Churchill, Wooten and Poolesville. White kids at WJ are only 100-150 points above white kids at Wheaton and Einstein (which I'm sure can be attributed to class differences more than anything else).

Wow!

It really sounds like there is something really magnetic about Blair pulling in all those high scoring white and asian kids.

I'm sure those scores are a reasonable expectation for all new home vuyers in that neighborhood.

Sure, 80'ish out of boundary kids who chose to attend Blair the largest high-school in the entire county may slightly increase the school's average, but it's also clear those kids only did that well because Blair is an outstanding school.

Good thing only the white kids count towards a school’s reputation! who cares about the other 2300 kids at Blair whose scores we will not discuss. I guess I do see your point. Blair is great at supporting the handful of white kids shipped in, well done Blair.

I'd suspected this was true but didn't have hard facts before now.

You consider DCUM to be hard facts? That is some Blair math right there.

Riddle me this considering how much lower Blair scores are (even with the magnet) as a whole, how low are the minority scores that are dragging the white kids scores down. Considering how over represented white kids are in the magnets and what a large percentage of the white kids at Blair they represent, shouldn’t the white score be even higher?

Why does Blair helping the white kids and under serving it’s minorities show that it is a good school despite it’s diversity but a school like BCC that has strong white score while underserves it’s minorities only shows that it is a hell hole for white privilege?

I personally think that makes Blair a worse school as it turns it back on the majority of it’s students to focus on the few it lured to come from outside while keeping the achievement gap status quo. At least BCC support the majority strongly

And the DCC parents cant hate on the W schools and then you white performance as a narrow proxy for there quality.

The difference is they probably paid for private tutors.

I think the point was that the white kids that are rezoned to Woodward aren't going to have their futures ruined because they're going to a school with more Latinx kids and that the dog-whistling fear mongering among some PPs in this thread is not warranted when you examine the data.

I'll bite. Poolesville is a magnet too and white kids there aren't scoring as well on SATs than Blair. And again, white kids at "scary" DCC high schools like Wheaton and Einstein are only scoring around a hundred points below their peers in Wooton, Churchill and WJ.

Whitman's average SAT score - 1289

WJ average SAT score - 1213

Two closest DCC HS likely to send students in WJ/Woodward is Einstein and Wheaton.


Average Wheaton SAT score - 1002

Average Einstein SAT score - 1039
