[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m just surprised because people are super obsessed with Severna Park and making sure their kids are in that school district, like typical W parents, yet their academic outcomes are so not W school level at all. [/quote]

I'm not sure who these people are who you think are super obsessed with Severna Park.  Within AACPS, it's general one of the top -mostly just because of demographics (it's the whitest and the richest)
But I can't imagine people are comparing the top MoCo schools to SP.  Not because one is better than the other, but just because the people that would be happy living in those areas of MoCo wouldn't want to live on the Broadneck Peninsula, for example[/quote]

There's someone (someones?) on this board who grew up in SP and is super bitter and loves to post about their opinion that [b]people in SP are snobby without being rich or prestigious enough to "deserve" to be as snobby as they are.[/b] So I'm guessing this is just that person again. [/quote]

It's not like they're wrong though.

Lots of the people in Severna Park definitely are incredibly snobby and elitist despite themselves not having the most elite backgrounds and credentials. And to top it off, a lot of those same snobs are COVID deniers and Trump supporters.

Perhaps it's ridiculous to measure success based off ivy-league admits, but it is strange that Severna Park has such a low number of NMSF, even compared to its neighboring schools in the same county. [/quote]
