[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just call any Fortune 500 company and ask what they think of Sty students. Then ask about Blair.  Compare the responses. Or in the case of Blair, the "Whaaa?"[/quote]

Exactly. My NYC-area family members have heard of Poolesville, TJ, and Sidwell, in terms of DC-area high schools. When I said we were moving to the DC area, they said "Oh, they have Poolesville and TJ, right? Those are like the Stuy and Bronx Science of the DC area."

None have heard of Blair. [/quote]

No to poolesville. Ie no national reputation.

Yes to TJ. national rep is strong on Wall street, engineering jobs, colleges, tech jobs. [/quote]

You can say no, but I'm not lying when I say that my family members have heard of it, as has my husband, who has worked extensively in higher education. And why wouldn't it have reputation beyond the DC area? It's the number 30 school in the country on Niche and 116 on US News. I really don't understand the Poolesville bashing on this board.
