[quote=Anonymous]Poolesville Global is a great house. It’s perfect for smart kids who don’t want backbreaking work but who want to be surrounded by an excellent peer group. It’s not comparable at ALL to Blair SMCs though.   The field trips are wonderful in terms of getting them outside to appreciate nature and they help bond the students.  In my opinion, it’s the healthiest magnet program for a student’s well being and the one that everyone in the school wishes they were part of.

Students that graduated last year from Global went to schools including MIT, Harvard, USC, Brown, Michigan as well as UMD Honors.   Students  Freshman year have their last three classes in a rotation.

The program has been revamped in the last few years. They used to take a lot of local students but now it’s almost out boundary students. Their new mantra is they want local representation but with only 10-15 local kids across all the magnet programs- the local ones are very strong.  I have a freshman this year and one that graduated a few years ago from the program.[/quote]
