Why are people who have fled DC because they can't afford it and have move to some aluminum siding covered house in Falls Church or Burke, coming to this forum to trash Wilson. If you are planning to or are sending your DS/DD's (black/white/indifferent) to school with a bunch bourbon swilling rednecks in VA, why do you post in the DC schools forum? I'll never understand why you won't push your kids to achieve constructively and stop glamorizing anti-intellectuallism. If your son would struggle academically at Wilson--he'll have a way worse time at the bottom of his class at GDS, Maret, Bullis or the other schools that you could probably buy your way into. His self esteem will be smashed to bits along with your wallet. And he will be exposed to thriving psychedelic and prescription drug culture that is as bad as the bourbon swilling rednecks, really.
Actually, poster is probably referring to problems at Wilson a few years ago when older kids were being placed by some kind of DC youth rehabilitation service branch at Wilson causing lots of behavioral problems. Don't know if this is still the case, but the PP is not totally making this up.
