A Short History of Montgomery Blair High School
Montgomery Blair High School (MBHS) serves the diverse population of Silver Spring, Maryland, in Montgomery County, just outside of Washington, DC. Montgomery Blair High School's precursor was Takoma-Silver Spring High School, founded in 1925. It opened with eighty-six students and five faculty members, including the principal, Mrs. Evalene Beebe. Three years later, the Board of Education decided to expand the school to include a junior high school.

By the mid 1930's, the school was getting large enough that it was determined to split the junior and senior high schools, and a new high school was constructed "miles from anywhere." The high school moved, along with its seal, ring, song, traditions, and colors (red and white) in March 1935. The new school was named after Montgomery Blair, Abraham Lincoln's Postmaster General and lawyer for Dred Scott before the Supreme Court.

After World War II, the population of suburban Maryland grew by leaps and bounds, and Blair found itself by a growing downtown Silver Spring, instead of miles from anywhere. Its student population grew from 714 in 1946 to 1,323 five years later. The school expanded its campus over the next decades, and today it houses close to 3,000 students, the county's largest enrollment.

With the continuing expansion of the Silver Spring area in recent years, and the annexation of Prince George's County part of Takoma Park into Montgomery County, the Blair population may reach 3,000 by the turn of the century. With this in mind, the County has built a new Blair High School at the corner of Colesville Road and University Boulevard in the Four Corners area of Silver Spring. The school opened for the 1998-99 school year.

Blair houses Montgomery County Public Schools' Communication Arts Program (CAP), a humanities and media program, and Science, Mathematics, Computer Science Magnet Program."
