[quote=Anonymous]The W's are a group of schools in western Montgomery county that have an unusually low FARMs rate. This translates to an overall higher average on standardized tests since performance is tied to affluence. That means overall kids score average like most places but there are few low achievers bringing down the school's average. For a high-achiever, they're pretty much the same as any other MCPS high-school in that the top 10% taking rigorous classes it's mostly interchangeable with other high schools.[/quote]
