[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Incredibly sad. Blair is an extraordinary program in a very mediocre and declining school district. And yes, the peers and their families are what made this special. Extraordinary kids and extraordinary expectations from the parents on academics. Most kids in MCPS don't work hard, even in the Ws, and their parents care more about athletics than academics. The administrators care less about excellence than placating people. We probably would not have stayed in MOCO if this program didn't exist. [/quote] The school isn't mediocre. Its not a top school, but that's because many flee vs. giving it a chance (by then want into the magnet). And, many of us care about academics first. Admin tow the MCPS line and don't about students, parents or staff. Let me guess, you are a W family who should stay in your own lane and want to justify going to Blair and taking up spots that should be saved for DCC kids only.[/quote]
