[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally think I rather send my kids to TJ. Everyone at TJ is bright and driven, it is only a small percentage of Blair’s population that is magnet with the rest pulling from the poorer parts of the county. I am sure many of those kids are hard workers but many won’t be,  in a school that big there is almost as many dropouts as magnet kids.[/quote]

Perhaps, that was true 20-30 years ago, not sure, but these days it's not accurate. Further, as someone posted elsewhere Blair makes TJ their b**ch in every actual comparison.[/quote]

Which part isn’t true? Blair is getting poorer and higher farms. Some middle class for sure but no one would call the university Blvd corridor a nice part of town[/quote]

Blair's 2018 SAT average was like 50 points higher than any W.[/quote]

W parents went crazy when that little tidbit came out. Before they could only point at the SAT scores to show they were better. Now that Blair scores shot up, they are sh$##ing on themselves. Their only advantage has disappeared.

NMSF? Nope 
Presidential? Nope 
Science bowls? Nope 
Siemens? Nope 
Science Olympiads? Nope 
Math Olympiads? Nope 
Intel/Regeneron scholars? Hell no

What are they good at actually? The consensus was classicism and racism.[/quote]
