My best parts about being at Blair was participating in the school clubs. I was apart if clubs like Mind Matters, Honors Psychology program, Horticulture club, etc. I helped raise a lot of money for these clubs so we can donate to charity and also go on field trips. The worst part about my experience was the amount of kids in the building. The building was big but the class sizes were pretty large.

I 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. The diversity is a huge plus IMO, and there are programs and shows etc tha...
