All in all great school! Way more superior than the W schools.

say what you will but every single parent at the W's could have sent their children to Blair if they wanted. Every one of them chose not to, if people really thought it was superior they would vote with their feet.

Yours is a case of sour grapes and trying to convince yourself

LOL

Are you talking Blair or the Blair magnate? No, every W student couldn't get into the magnate. But post people who are zoned for a W could afford a house zoned for Blair and chose not to do that.

The original post seemed to suggest Blair overall was superior, not focusing on the magnate. If that was the case, it was reasonable for the PP to point out most W parents could have chosen Blair if they believed it was better. I don't see what there is lol about that statement, which true - regardless of whether you believe W parents are smart to prefer their school over Blair.

Blair is the best. W parents are jealous that their kids couldn't get in to it, which is why there is so much hate for it. Sorry that you couldn't get the best school in MoCo.

W parents don’t envy Blair parents. I mean seriously? You need have your head checked. And, no, I am not a W parent. My kid is in magnet. I just think that’s a silly thing to say.

Except when they do in every other post.

I honestly don't think there are any Whitman or BCC parents on this board. We were considering moving out of DC for middle school so came on, all I hear about is DCC (?) and schools way up Interstate 270 and a couple magnet school outside of the beltway several miles.

I guess that's what you get when you're a 220 school county-run public school district: a ton of different factions and a bunch of weirdos on an anonymous chat board pretending to know something about the other 219 schools they aren't even near.

You must be joking, right? This forum was /is dominated by Whitman and the W parents, bashing every other school. Why do you think Jeff made a separate PG schools forum? Because of the insufferable W parents. Lately though, parents from others part of the county have been pushing back.

hahaha, just keep telling yourself that.

PG county? where's that? Is that part of MoCo or MCPS? I thought it was a whole different county and school district entirely.... They

You’re too clueless. Learn about DCUM history before embarrassing yourself.

NOW THERE IS AN EMBARRASSING STATEMENT to reveal about YOURSELF.

But, yes PP, PG county is not party of Montgomery County nor its school system.

Huh!!???? Wow!!
You are not only clueless but you also cannot read.
Who said anything about PG being part of MoCo or MCPS?
Let me break it slowly for you:
There was a time when there was just a MD schools Forum, no PG schools forum. But because of W parents derision, insufferable comments and remarks toward PG schools and parents (i.e. it's child endangerment to send your kids there etc...), PG parents asked and Jeff made a separate PG forum where they can discuss things relate to PG schools.
Every time you post, you embarrass yourself. Stop before you dig yourself any deeper.

QO has a really good reputation and everyone I've ever met who sent DCs there have only had positive experiences.

So you base your judgement on how much they hate Trump? OK, I guess if you love Trump QO is for you.

RM has a good reputation too and everyone I know who has sent their kids there have had good experiences.

indeed..

Why? I would choose it because it is under a 30 minute commute from me or my spouse's job and has motivated peer group students. Plus MS and HS are busy times so I'd want my kid to be able to walk to/from school. That really makes for nice logistics all the way around.

Look up and to the left on your screen.

Does it say

Forum Index » MCPS Public Schools

I think probably not. The point is that MD and VA both have public school forums, and Virginia's is a mix of APS, FCPS, etc.

But for Maryland, Jeff had to separate out PG County because classist racist white folks kept derailing threads about PGPS with their vitriol.

tell us more, tell us more!

? RM and QO have about the same number of FARMS - actually RM has slightly lower, but QO doesn't have too many "undesirables" like RM does? LOL.. okaaay..

RM only has 30% white kids and QO has 45%. That's why, PP. Just being honest how it is. People still think the higher the number of white kids, the better the school.

ah.. that explains it, then because the number of Hispanic and Black students as a % of the school population is pretty similar between the two schools; same for % of ESOL and FARMs.

Really, the two schools have similar demographic statistics. The only real difference is the number of Asian American students between QO and RM - RM has more. QO is more white students as a % of total population.

QO is a much better school.

based on what?
