[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP go for the best schools in the best district - Pyle and Whitman.[/quote]

OP here  - thanks; I might do that, not only because of the schools, but also [b]because of the commute and I know and like the area[/b]. [/quote]

Those are good reasons.

"[b]Because the average standardized test scores at the school are high[/b]" is not.[/quote]

[b]How on this planet can this not be a good reason to choose a school (amongst other reasons)? [/b]Who in their right mind is going to pick a school with terrible scores over a school with high scores? The PC has filtered down into a monumental swamp of BS with some of you people.[/quote]

Please explain what difference this makes to a given child and their education.[/quote]

Sweetheart if you need high scores explaining to you, you're in the wrong place.[/quote]

Yes, I can see how these high-schools stack up by looking at SAT averages the county released for similar SES cohorts. The data is available from MCPS at the link below, but the short-list is:

Blair 1326
Walter Johnson 1275
Wooton 1262
Poolesville 1259
Churchill 1257
