the Academies at Montgomery Blair are communities of students and educators united by a set of common interests and career goals. Our mission is to provide a nurturing environment in which students are:

•Challenged to achieve the highest level of academic rigor
•Supported in their pursuit of academic and career goals
•Provided career pathways that meet their interests and needs
•Equipped with the skills needed to be successful beyond high school

Blair ninth graders begin their high school experience as a member of the Ninth Grade Academy and complete the freshman cornerstone course, Connections. In sophomore year, students move into one of the five career Academies.
