[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is more like what Whitman once was.  It use dot be the best in the country, referred to as the Super School.  There was no place for it to go and all the other schools had potential.  Those schools have since caught up and passed it in some measures especially diversity and nationally it can't compete with the top schools.

Montgomery County Schools aren't even the best in the state anymore.  A sad time indeed. [/quote]

Well, no, but that’s because Howard County schools are kicking butt and taking names. The county has a better educated population abs fewer poor people. But Whitman is still excellent. [/quote]

Not really. If you look at similar SES bands for these areas you'll see they're really kind of average. It's like a school believing they are awesome because their test score average is high when the reality is it's high because they have a low FARMS number, and regardless the same kid would do exactly the same at any of these schools.[/quote]
