[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. I don’t find the work to be very challenging, it’s too crowded, everybody’s in “advanced” classes. [b]We moved here from a much better school system[/b]. But sounds lif this is considered great among you folks I guess there’s no point in moving to another cluster.[/quote] Which school system?[/quote] There are lots of better public school systems in this country when compared to MCPS. MCPS is a dysfunctional mess. Some fantastic teachers, but they are struggling to work in a mess of a district. And MS is most definitely the worst. [/quote] Blah, blah, blah,.. Which school system?[/quote] I’m not the OP, but I have family in other states. My niece in AZ attends an amazing public charter school that has provided her with a p[b]henomenal education (especially in Math). Way better than what MCPS has provided. [/b] I also have a nephew in a NJ public school system (town-based, which I think is so much better) who has had things like a foreign language since ES. MCPS caters to the lowest-achieving students and by doing so, it has brought the entire school system down. I had kids who went for a CES to a home MS and it was pretty depressing and boring. The kids are capable of more, and the low expectations lead to even lower performance. [/quote] I bet you that your "amazing" school system doesn't even come close to the numbers of math Olympians that MCPS has produced.[/quote] And how many of those Math Olympians in MCPs come from Blair or Poolesville SMACS? I’m the PP who said the Magnet HS programs are good in MCPS and they are. My kid does math competitions and you have a very close-minded view if you think Montgomery County is at the top. Lots of highly talented math students in other parts of the country - CA, AZ, NJ (Princeton), TX. [/quote] No one ever said there are not highly talented math students in other parts of the country; it is you who claimed that your niece "amazing" charter has way more better math than MCPS. You are the one who is close-minded and the hater.[/quote] All I know is depiste it's smaller size Blair always beats TJ in every matchup and US News thinks they're the #1 HS in the US.[/quote] Keep smokin' that TP weed cuz that's the only why Blair will ever get that high, despite what you think. #11 in Montgomery County Public Schools #34 in Maryland https://www.usnews.com/education/best-high-schools/maryland/rankings #12 in Maryland https://www.niche.com/k12/search/best-public-high-schools/s/maryland/ #143 in Maryland https://www.greatschools.org/maryland/schools/?gradeLevels=h&page=6&view=table[/quote] The poster's point was TJ tops the charts on these silly lists but in every real matchup Blair trounces them. In other words, the ranking is pretty worthless. [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtFG1QsKJAo[/youtube][/quote] Hahaha, I remember that. But why can't TJ ever beat Blair at anything? Seriously Math or Physics Olympians? Regneron scholars? NMSF? TJ comes up short in every matchup. So sad. :([/quote]
