[quote=Anonymous]I think this is a stupd and destructive thread, and for the record I don't have a kid at either school. But ... a quick check shows that Blair had eight semifinalists and one regional finalist in the Siemens competition, one Davison Fellow, and 38 National Merit Semifinalists. It had eight Intel Science Competition semifinalists (finalists announced tomorrow!), a winnder of the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, 1st and 3rd place winnders of the UMD Math Competition (and 23 additional kids who won Honorable Mentions). A quick glance at the Poolesville website doesn't list comparable honors and contest winners. That doesn't mean there aren't any! But the results cited above don't really indicate that Blair is in the going downhill. As for the non-magnet classes ... Blair has lots of really smart high achievers and plenty of AP and other advanced classes. I know some kids who are amazing artists, writers, etc. who go to Blair. [/quote]
