[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The best high schools in MCPS are the magnet programs at Blair, Poolesville and Richard Montgomery.

For someone new to the district how easy is it to get spots? And should I move to a specific place?[/quote]

Don't move for a magnet lottery. And all the W schools have very large cohorts of smart and ambitious students. We moved from the west coast to the Whitman district. Good experience. I'd say the W schools are really good for smart and self-motivated students. But I think they'd be miserable for below average students. There is an understated pressure cooker environment at all of them. Among Whitman, Churchill, and WJ, I think WJ is the most "normal." Whitman and Churchill are more oriented toward the high flyers.

One thing to add here.

WJ is likely to become closer to Eienstein after boundary adjustment. It won't become Einstein but it will move in that direction after adding few elemenrary schools from DCC.

As result, WJ will be even less pressure cooker if it matters for you.[/quote]
