From the Site 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.
By the mid 1930's, a new high school was constructed "miles from anywhere." The new school was named after Montgomery Blair, Abraham Lincoln's Postmaster General and lawyer for Dred Scott before the Supreme Court.
