[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]is Poolesville like maryland's ashburn?[/quote]

No, they have a magnet program but their regular folk aren't as bad as RM and Blair.  [/quote]
Poolesville is in the sticks, and it has 36% Asian American students. That's why their scores are high.

Any wealthy school or school with a high % of Asian American population will have high test scores. I know people don't like to hear that, but it's true.

Same thing plays out in CA where I'm originally from. There are HS that have a 40% FARMs rate, but high Asian American population, and their scores are very high. [/quote]

What percent of the students at Poolesville are magnet students? What percent of the students at Blair & RM are in the magnet. Let’s look at socio economic and racial data of each of those three schools. [/quote]

Most Asians are in the magnet program. Most Asians will not move/live in Poolesville. Most of the non-magnet kids are white, African American or Hispanic. . [/quote]

Where would DCUM be without stereotypes, prejudices, and general bigotry? :roll:

John Poole MS: 59% white, 13% Hispanic, 11% 2+, 10% Asian-American, 7% Black/African American.

Note: I don't live in Poolesville, I can't imagine any circumstances where I would want to live in Poolesville, but even in Poolesville it's 2023, not 1963.[/quote]
