My daughter attended the Math and Science magnet at Blair, and it provided an extraordinary education for her. She was admitted to an Ivy League school and she has told us that she would not have survived majoring in a STEM subject without the rigorous preparation she received in the magnet, especia
Posted by a parent on 2/10/2026as a new student at blair, especially coming from a different country, has presented challenges, particularly regarding academic guidance.

Posted by a student on 7/22/2025I have had 3 kids graduate and a 4th is a current senior. The school is likely one of the most diverse in the area if not the country with a roughly 30-30-30-10 split and is accepting of gender diversity as far as I can tell.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI went to this school for nine years from Kindergarten to 8th grade (class of 2025) and it was overall a good experience. The kids are all great, most of the teachers are good, and the environment is great.
