[quote=Anonymous]In a few years, DS will be choosing a high school. We have the money set aside to do private, and DH and I went to highly competitive private schools ourselves. Highly. Stress factories that send 1/3 of the graduates to an Ivy, if you catch my meaning. I'm intrigued by the idea of Wilson H.S. even though I know they won't send DS to Beijing on a luxury summer to "study culture" the way one of the above-named schools will. I know for certain that kids like DS from Ward 3 and then wind up at Oberlin, UW-Madison, Columbia U. and McGill. But what about the intervening 4 years? I assume that if Kid X get admitted to Columbia, SOMEthing really good happened between the walls of Wilson during his time there, right? Do you personally know any teens well from Ward 3 who attend Wilson now, and if so, what do they think? ( I know, long shot since al our kids are 7 or younger ....)[/quote]
