[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you look at something like SATs as opposed to raw averages, it quickly becomes clear the Great Schools narrative is just propaganda used to sew fear and prop up real estate prices. When people realize a college-bound student will end up with a strong education at any of these schools, [b]there's no reason to overpay for a place in Potomac[/b].[/quote] Unless you want the very best schools. I do; do you?[/quote] I don’t believe that the schools in Potomac are the “very best” because I don’t think high test scores tell us anything about a school other than that it’s students test high.[/quote] If you wanted the best schools you'd put your child in St Albans, Sidwell Friends or Holton Arms, not a public school. There are levels to this class-based pettiness. You're on an upper-middle rung being snarky to someone else that is stuck in the middle just like you. Get some self awareness, please.[/quote] Child please, these named schools are not better than the Ws, BCC and a few others. But MCPS magnets absolutely crush these privates and it's not even close.
