Talk:Montgomery Blair High School

message: What about the school's rivalry with RMHS (Richard Montgomery) ? I went to both their Open Houses (before choosing RM) and both talked about rivalry with each other.
Shouldn't that be mentioned ?--151.200.36.244 16:04, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Do any other Blair alumni find the page rather skewed? I feel like there's an over-emphasis on the magnet programs and an under-emphasis on the rest of the school (and I'm a magnet alum). I realize that the programs are part of what makes the school notable, but that's certainly not all (it has to be one of the more diverse high schools in the country, for example). There's no information about the school's role within the new downcounty consortium, for example.
: I really agree. This page is totally skewed towards the magnet program, and very little about the other aspects of the school. I would add more, but I am not sure what details to include vs. irrevelant details. 
: But really, should there be such a long paragraph about what classes magnets are required to take? Who cares about that at all? I am a magnet graduate, and I certainly do not. I would delete the entire thing, but is there any reason why it should be kept. Why would anyone ever want to know that magnets have to take data systems and algorithms "which mr. heidler used to teach." I agree though that the unique classes of the magnet program is important information.

message: My question is whether a site plan of the school can be added to the Campus section under fair use. Although the section currently is not fully developed, it will eventually describe the campus in detail; the site plan image would help significantly. joturner 22:17, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Magnet students have been ... National Merit Semifinalists (more Semifinalists than any other school in Maryland for nine years running, and the most nationally the past two years[citation needed], despite an enrollment of only around 100 per year
Citation needed. I find this numerically impossible. Other schools (TJ) have much more than 100 semifinalists per year.Chronicidal 01:24, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Student run Wiki 

message: All the information that's been added since I was last here is great, except the page is now loaded with information like "Traditionally, the central courtyard is reserved for the seniors and the west one for the faculty members, especially during lunch periods", lists of classes for every department, and what appears to be boilerplate text from the Magnet website.
Let's clean it up... would appreciate help. 96.255.225.194 (talk) 22:10, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Brevity 

message: Has anyone noticed that this article, an article about a high school, is nearly as long as the article on the country of Brazil?  And additionally, even with its prodigious length, it still, after 9 years, is a start-class article?  I am hoping that due to a nearly two year inactivity here on the talk page, that maybe I could start trying to trim it down and bring it up?  I welcome any help or constructive comments on how to do that.  I will be starting in about a week.  Gtwfan52 (talk) 02:51, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

message: Technically, the cross country team doesn't have specific varsity and junior varsity teams. Should there be a separate symbol for this team, and others similar to it, in which varsity and junior varsity is divided up by meet, or is that overkill?173.79.25.71 (talk) 19:00, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
