[quote=Anonymous]I agree with PP. Current trends suggest that Wilson should be largely IB in the next 10 years. That likely means a group of students that is fairly high performing, which should translate to a high functioning school. But DCPS seems to dislike the "equity optics" of having a high functioning school in NW while other schools are struggling, so it will look for ways to ensure students from other neighborhoods can attend Wilson in maximum numbers. When the numbers of IB students were lower, DCPS could use the feeder network to accomplish this goal. The high IB number of students will make this harder. So I predict DCPS will force some sort of "choice set" or systemwide lottery on everyone. Whatever mechanism DCPS chooses, the result will be to drag down the performance of Wilson to match other schools. [/quote]
