[quote=Anonymous]Looking over this thread, I see only see two negative posters.  Only one these posters specifically addresses the Blair magnet, and that poster doesn't have a kid at Blair or actual experience with the school.  That poster is concerned about possible gangs at Blair, and other posters with experience there (including me) have tried to allay this concern.

The second negative poster has said some pretty unbelievable (30% of kids have aspergers? TPMS kids are budding criminals?) things about the Takoma Park middle school magnet -- which is different from the Blair HS magnet.  In fact I wonder why she's on a Blair thread slamming TPMS at all.  I would ignore this poster.

DCUM is not always the most reliable source of information, especially when posters seem to have their own agendas.  I see it like Amazon reviews - until you get a number like 25 reviews, you don't get a true sense of what's really going on.

I agree, talk to other parents and students, and form your own opinion.  Please, don't let these two posters deter you from what is a terrific, nationally-recognized program.  No, it's not easy.  Yes, your kid will need to work very hard, and the other kids are also working hard. [/quote]
