However, if u decide to go in...go in with a lot of prep in the summer, and a team of tutors to see him through. Get the team in place WAAYYYY before the kid joins Blair. Seriously...this is the best advice I can give to anyone going to Blair, Poolsville or RM.

+ points of the program - an almost athletic dedication with which the top guys work for the Science, Math, Robotics competition.

Reasons to not go in the program - Your kid could graduate with tough courses in his home school and a 4.0 GPA...something that the magnet schools don't give to most kids in the program.

So - what is the end goal? [b]If it is to get into Ivy...maybe a home school is better...and if it is to survive Ivy[/b]...magnet is better.

Tough call![/quote]

The goal in my household has always remained for my children to seek the best and most challenging education at each developmental stage (elementary, middle, and high schools).  Pure and simple.  This makes our decision making uncomplicated.  We like it that way. 	[/quote]

That's ours too. And so it was RMIB.  Baptism by fire and all that, but no regrets. [/quote]
