[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Near Silver Spring, I'd go for Wheaton.  Wheaton is one of the top three in MCPS.

A lot of DCUMS will steer you to Blair ("Blair envy" is a myth perpetuated from when Blair was a top school 10-15 years ago).  Nowadays it's not that good a school.  Check the school profile and you'll see what I mean.

If you were not set on Silver Spring, a school that African Americans excel in is Poolsville (currently the top school in MCPS).

Good luck![/quote]

Except  that is not a majority African Americans  school. [/quote]

Does Poolesville even have any AA students?[/quote]

There are a lot of minorities in Poolesville. [/quote]

The population of Poolesville is 1,242: 78% non-Hispanic white, 0.3% Black or African-American, 9.2% Asian-American, 5.5% two or more races. Also, 8.3% Hispanic or Latino (of any race). I would not consider that "a lot of minorities in Poolesville", but your opinion may be different.
