[quote=Anonymous]"Are you really arguing that there are only 300ish qualified top students in the entire county that deserve a seat at Blair SMAC, Poolesville or RMIB?" It's not about "deserving". There are a ton more students who would do the work and end up better educated. But we have to understand that those student's will NOT have any greater chance of attending HYPSM because they attend the larger program. HYPSM only want a certain number from MC because MC only has a certain fraction of real in-born talent ie nature, it doesn't matter how we nurture/educate our kids. Creating a better education for our kids is a great idea and I'm willing to pay higher taxes to do it. But again, the tippy top schools are not looking for only students that have practiced a lot, they are looking for those that can reach the top with 1/2 or 1/10 the education. [/quote]
