[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We went to the invited students Open House and frankly I was blown away. I had a VERY negative impression of Blair Magnet after the fall OH, it felt like we were just being lectured at by the coordinator about what colleges the kids could or could not be expected to get into and a useless endless Q&A where people whined about not being the DCC and having to apply to Poolesville instead. This week's OH, on the other hand, was warm, inviting, informative. We met so many passionate teachers and fellow students, rotated through many classrooms and got to learn about the course progressions, what an actual student day looked like, what kinds of kids my kid would be taking classes with, and what they could and could not expect in terms of time commitments, what they'd be studying, how to make a balanced schedule while keeping in mind their magnet course loads. It's was wonderful. Honestly, before the open house I was encouraging my kid to go to another program they'd been invited to, but now I'm all in on the magnet. If you weren't able to attend I HIGHLY recommend calling the coordinator and setting up a shadow session (open until the 12th, I believe).
