[quote=Anonymous]Both Blair and Northwood are part of the Downcounty Consortium, which allows students some choice between high schools within the DCC. I say “some,” because students rank their top choices, and are assigned to one of them based on availability (I’m paraphrasing—it’s a bit more complicated, but that’s the gist of it). Since Blair is so large and overcrowded, the likelihood of being assigned to Blair if you’re zoned elsewhere is much lower than the other way around. Nothing is guaranteed other than your zoned school, but it’s much easier to get reassigned from Blair to, say, Northwood than to go from Northwood to Blair. I’d say, barring a deep interest in a middle school IB program, your current best bet is TPMS—>Blair. There are plenty of areas near TPMS that are a fairly safe bet for stable boundaries. [/quote]
