[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are relocating next calendar year with a 9th grader to the down county consortium from a smaller school system. Looking for some advice on which school might offer the best fit for a smart kid with no singular focus as of yet - they are currently in 3 honors classes: Alg2, English and Bio. Really enjoyed social studies type classes in middle school. Likes to build things and artistic pursuits. Not really into robots or computer programming.

Anyone super familiar with the different schools and academies? We are feeling a bit lost in the process. [/quote]

Blair. Einstein and Wheaton are the DCUM favorites. Northwood has gotten some live here recently too. I wouldn't worry too much about the academies. Einstein is more artsy/humanities than the others.[/quote]

The Einstein Visual Arts Program (VAC) is fantastic for an artsy child.  It's extremely competitive and requires a portfolio review, interview, and 2 hour in person still life drawing.  My DC excelled in HS primarily because of the support of the VAC faculty.  It is still MCPS so expect the occasional I don't have a teacher for my statistics class and it's the 4th week of school.
