[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Proof also please that most Whitman bound students turn down the Blair magnet. [/quote]

NP. But read the MD boards for confirmation. Many Whitman pyramid students stay at their home schools because of sports or distance or they don't want to be in a science magnet program (similar to students who choose Wilson over Walls or Banneker).

The Blair program succeeds in attracting a lot of talented students from all over the county to that school and significantly improving its scores. Keep in mind the magnet program is very small (~150 per grade). There is a regular high school program at Blair which most kids are on. [/quote]. Your post confuses me. Are you saying the Whitman students apply to the magnet and are admitted, but choose not to attend because they don't really want to be in a science magnet??? Then why do they apply in the first place?

Also, Last time I checked, the magnet was roughly 100 students, not 150. Has it grown?[/quote]
