[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the last 20 years plus the half of the Blair magnet group are NMSF.  You can just about take that to the bank.  The other half missed the mark by point![/quote]

My kids who went to Blair but aren't into STEM or the magnet were also NMSF. I remember seeing a post a while ago about the county accidentally releasing SAT averages by school and demographic. Blair had the highest SAT average in MCPS for our cohort, not because of the magnet since, frankly, we aren't Asian. It's just a big and diverse school with plenty of smart kids.[/quote]

Good lord. Nobody other than you buy that[/quote]

The PP is spot on. Sure, it doesn't sit well with people trying to sell the good and bad school myth, but in this case, the facts are clear. https://ww2.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/sharedaccountability/reports/2017/1771102HS%20Princ_SAT%20Partic_Perf%20Class%20of%202017.pdf

It really bugs people who buy into the good and bad school nonsense. The reality is there are schools where the population is more homogenous but that isn't the same thing as high-performing. The low number of low-income students may boost their test average, but it isn't an indication of high-performing students or even great opportunities. [/quote]
