[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ones like Blair should be regional as the W schools have far more classes than down county.[/quote]

Even the W schools you mention do not come close to Blair in terms of course offerings. The program has courses you would not find in any other program, probably even nationwide. The courses, especially the electives, are not just more advanced, but very unique and niche.

That's what makes it so special. Turning it into 6 regional programs would completely destroy it. [/quote]

That's nonsense. MCPS is comparable in size to FCPS and TJ has close to 600 students per grade. There's no reason MCPS couldn't fill 6 regional mangets with 100 students each.[/quote]

The problem is that MCPS currently wants to split it into 6 regions. It'll never work. If they decide to model after TJ and have one big centralized program, then I'd be more for it. They're going to end up irrevocably ruining the program.[/quote]

Why?  6 regions allows opportunity for both students and teachers.[/quote]
