[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS middle schools have terrible electives all around so I wouldn't focus on that. It's just luck whether you get a good teacher and there happens to be a spot in a period where your child does not have a required class. If you want to guarantee your child access to STEM electives in HS which is much more important than MS it's no question that [b]you should do whatever school with guarantee your child a a spot at Blair.[/b] The STEM electives are numerous, rigorous and open to non-magnet kids. Sligo is a stronger academic school overall but because Eastern has the magnet program there will be plenty of smart kids who are peers. They are mixed together with the non-magnet kids for math and science and many of those kids will also be strong in STEM in addition to humanities.[/quote] Careful about using the word "guarantee." DCC HS boundaries are all likely to change around 2025/26 when new Northwood and Woodward open.[/quote]
