The areas that feed into RM that are next to the Wootton cluster are really nice. I thought RM was very attractive to people because as long as your child has the grades and scores then they can go into the IB program which is just as good if not better than taking the top classes at Wootton. (Its harsh but if your kid can't get into the IB program from being in boundary in RM then they wouldn't do very well at Wootton either.)[/quote]
I'm the PP and I would agree.  We actually chose the RM cluster just for this reason - the in cluster IB program advantage.  But, if they aren't at that level, then RM has a track for them, too - AP or not.  Didn't want the pressure cooker environment at Wootton if they aren't going to be super achievers.

[b]I also liked RM cluster because it's probably the most diverse cluster in the whole of MCPS.[/b]  It's got a really good balance and well rounded student body.[/quote]

Not really.

RM: 24.7% Asian, 17.5% black, 23.4% Hispanic, 29.5% white, 8.9% ESOL, 19.5% FARMs, 7.0% SPED, 37.4% ever FARMs
Northwest: 20.0% Asian, 26.3% black, 20.5% Hispanic, 28.0% white, [u]&lt;[/u]5.0% ESOL, 22.5% FARMs, 9.8% SPED, 43.2% ever FARMs
Clarksburg: 19.0% Asian, 28.9% black, 27.9% Hispanic, 19.8% white, 8.0% ESOL, 26.8% FARMs, 9.4% SPED, 51.6% ever FARMs
MCPS high school: 14.7% Asian, 21.4% black, 29.5% Hispanic, 30.0% white, 11.2% ESOL, 27.0% FARMs, 10.0% SPED, 46.1% ever FARMs[/quote]

So you looked at every high school in the county and found two that looked close to RM and said RM is not the most diverse?  This pretty much verifies it’s if not the most diverse, among the most diverse.  I’m not sure why you think these other two are more diverse.  I’m ignoring the last one that says “MCPS High School”.[/quote]
