When someone mentions "W" schools, what schools specifically are they talking about?

+1. The poster who keeps saying Churchill starts with a "C" will jump in soon.

OP here. Got it. Thanks

There are two women at work that talk about W schools, but the only one I've actually heard them mention by name is Wootton.

As a graduate of a W school I can their lead over non W schools has been shrinking over the years and the shine is wearing off due tot he high stress put on the students. One of the W schools actually has part of the day for relaxation to reduce stress, seriously-wtf, this is supposed to be a great time in a kids life, why put so much pressure on them.

WJ, B-CC Einstein, Blair, Northwest, Sherwood used to be awful school and now they are right up with the W schools.

btw there is only one W school and that is and always has been Whitman but as I said the shine is not so bright anymore with the latest drug arrests and assaults a simple read of the weekly police report will show you that.

BCC is, in many ways, similar to the W schools, both in good ways (lots of resources, good college placements, etc . . . ) and bad (pressure cooker environment that can be very hard on kids). It's got a little more diversity both racially and socio-economically than Whitman, Wooton, or Churchill, but is still very white and very affluent. Sometimes you'll hear people say "W schools and BCC", instead of just "W schools".

I'm not sure if you were responding to me (the PP just above), but I agree that it's a W school. Like BCC, WJ is a little more diverse, so I left it out of my sentence above. Emphasis on little.
