[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are the pluses or minuses of each and how do they compare? Why would you choose one for your child over another?[/quote]

I assume you are currently enrolled in Latin MS and thinking about staying vs going to Wilson which is your IB school?    The families I know who were in this position were at Latin b/c their oldest won the lottery for middle school when Hardy was not an option.   Once they were at Latin - their social network with friends became stronger each year and they wanted to stay through graduation.  [although I also know of a few who did not go to Wilson or Latin]

Wilson is a large urban HS.   You walk through metal detectors.  Like many DCPS, the performance and behavior challenges have changed as the city has gone through a major gentrification the last 10 years - but it is still an very large urban high school.[/quote]

Would you mind sharing what you mean by continuing to call it an urban school? Other that metal detectors (which would have prevented Haynes stabbing and many school shootings), what are you saying by calling it Urban over and over agin?[/quote]
