[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Blair and Poolesville have very different cultures. Blair has more than twice the number of students enrolled as Poolesville does. Most of the students at Poolesville were admitted through a selective process because the school houses 3 magnet programs; relatively few students are actually zoned for Poolesville. The teachers all talk about what a special school PHS is because the students are all so engaged. Because of the small enrollment, students don’t get shut out of extracurricular activities they’d like to pursue. It’s a tight knit community. It’s in a very small town setting. The school got a brand new building last year.[/quote]

Almost none of that can be replicated, though. An under-enrolled school in the far corner of a county, bussing kids in to utilize the building. If PP's point is to figure out which program should be replicated (if MCPS is even going to replicate the programs), that's something that cannot be copied. It either is or it isn't.
