This video about Einstein's Visual Arts Center (VAC) contains a list of where those students are heading.

Great video! Looks like wonderful resource. Is this available to all Einstein students?

I don't know that.

What I do wonder, though, is why some posters (you, for example) on DCUM are so insistent about the badness of Einstein. What's their/your motivation?


Isn't it obvious in stated reason #2? Some people feel the need to constantly validate their decision to pay a big premium to live in a certain school district by denigrating other schools.

Wait, wait, wait... are you trying to tell me that these thoughtful, sensitive, well-spoken kids heading to SLAC's like Smith, Oberlin, Scripps, Bard, Skidmore and Bates, go to EINSTEIN??? But DCUM always tells me Einstein is nothing but sociopathic gang-bangers.


You need to compare that list with comparable list from other high performing MCPS schools. I think your reaction is premature.


So now you are accepting the idea that Einstein is a "high performing MCPS school?"

I think we may be done here.

I think you clearly don't get the point.

That makes no sense as a response to the second PP's post -- unless somebody is contending that Whitman is nothing but sociopathic gangbangers?

Great video. Wish it was posted sooner. It likely would've ended this thread five pages ago.

Well, to be fair, it's not just Einstein that's nothing but sociopathic gang-bangers. According to DCUM, EVERY high school in MCPS is gang-infested, except for the white/wealthy ones.

In past years there has been a list on the school website of colleges where the IB students are going.
