Remind me again how Maryland is so "progressive"? So many ways to make sure you don't have to mingle with the poor.


And what other state is progressive? Vermont?

What's your goddamn point?

Montgomery County Public Schools
Prince George's County Public Schools
Howard County Public Schools

There is no Whitman school district. Whitman is a high school in Bethesda that is part of Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS). MCPS has 202 elementary schools, 38 middle schools, and 25 high schools.


Yeah! You know how to use the website!

For example, the zip code 20852 has homes that feed to Walter Johnson (Desirability Factor 10+ for most people), while others feed to Wheaton (DF 1- for most). So be careful.
Note: Of course everyone has their own assessment of desirability. I'm reflecting what seems to be the predominant opinion I read/hear. And I myself chose against WJ for my kids.


And of course over the next 10-15 years a lot of these perimeter zones will change, as demographic trends make the current boundaries for BCC, WJ, and Churchill unsustainable (Whitman is a little more insulated.) But really, after that top tier the rest of MoCo schools are still far superior to the majority of the schools anywhere else in the DC area, except for certain Ffx schools.

Curious why did you choose against WJ?


I didn't think my child would do well in the environment of a lot of pressure to achieve. I decided a more easy going school would be better for his temperment.

Funny, we chose WJ instead of Whitman or Churchill for the same reason.

Not the pp, but I think you are both right. I mean, WJ does seem less pressured than Whitman or Churchill. But WJ is also more pressured than, say, Einstein.
