[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely not BCC, it is just as good as it always was. I would definitely say Northwest, Rockville, and Magruder both recently became pretty bad. RM, Wootton is no longer the other Potomac school anymore, just way too much of a pressure cooker/terrible environment. Blair has (imo) improved from super ghetto to somewhat ghetto. [/quote]

Bless your heart.

I went to Blair when it was “super ghetto” so I guess I could use more choice words. “Ghetto” and “pressure cooker” are sure doing a lot of ~racially infused~ work here. Too Black and Latino and the schools are too ghetto, too Asian and they’re too high-pressure... they’ve got to be juuuuuust white.

To say "white" is to paint with too broad a brush - Chevy Chase, and especially Bethesda, have large Jewish populations, and Jewish families (so I'm told) place a high value on education and achievement. Not all "white" families / cultures do. When I was at Leland Jr High (RIP), there were plenty of white kids on the fast track to gas station jobs or the Marines.  [/quote]

Those areas were a lot of fed workers at the time and those who worked in DC.  Houses were affordable back then.[/quote]
