That would make sense - definitely could see the need for 15 more scions of Moco liberal elite to find solace at Blair Magnet - esp as taxes head north to fix MCPS under the Blueprint for Maryland. No one is tracking on the serious increase in taxes that’s headed Moco’s way but it’s coming Bethesda and Potomac property owners, it’s coming.
As the now deceased senate president Mike Miller - likely one of the best purveyors of legally corrupt tactics in the history of state government said of Moco: their riches are the golden goose egg in Maryland politics.
Oh, FFS, you sure didn't attend any magnet programs yourself, did ya?
Moco 'liberal elite' doesn't send their 'scions' to Blair magnet, their children are all in elite privates. Kids attending Blair magnet are mostly scions of Asan immigrants with advanced degrees.
Ha! Truth. The liberal elite avoid public school. Hypocrites all of them.
I have a kid at Blair, none of her friends are kids of liberal politicians.
The biggest downside to Blair is all the crazy Blair envy posters on dcum.

Yup. Crazy Blair Envy.
An articles about staff training for Narcan at MCPS? You're really grasping here.
How is it a bad thing that Blair administration wants to train staff on Narcan so in the rare event of an OD a child doesn't die?

You should read the article before shooting off your mouth. It answers the question why the drug training was necessary.
This comes after at least three students had to be treated with Narcan or needed medical attention in the past two months. One of those students overdosed during school hours at Blair in Silver Spring, overdosed after snorting fentanyl laced with Percocet.

Many of them resent better off magnet kids too. We sent our less focused, younger son to private as we heard BCC and (to a lesser degree) Westland aren't much better.
This is a weird comment in that, by high school, the classes are going to be pretty compartmentalized. So, for next year's SMCS class, they would take the 4 core magnet classes, AP US History, Language 3 or 4 depending on when they started, Honors English, and an elective.
Honors English will not be cohorted next year, but every other class would be. It might not include only magnet kids, but it would include a pretty high-achieving group of kids that are zoned to Blair.
I'm not doubting that Blair is a more heteorgenous school than whatever you are zoned to, but the actual experience of a SMCS kid can be pretty rarified if they want it to be.
Most magnet kid won’t be taking AP US history. [b]They are strongly advised against it[b].
Getting used to the rigor of the magnet is challenge. APUSH is a reading intense class that has its own challenges. Hon US History worked well with the difficult history classes. If your child loves history I’d save it for a later year.
Why are they advising this? DC loves history and is a strong writer. What specifically will be so hard that a magnet 9th grader is advised against taking it? Is it their schedule, workload, etc.??

So true. Liberal elite only talk about public schools. Send their kids to private. Blair SMAC is full of people who are derogatively called strivers by the liberals. Jokes and politics aside - it can be a really tough place for a kid who doesn't enough math and a super competitive environment.
I am pretty sure those who made these comments are private schools parents and probably don't even live in MoCo.
