[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know folks who went to Walls and JR (when it was Wilson) and they seemed as prepared for college as my brother who went to a W school in MCPS...which is to say, it was an adjustment for all of them, and none of the high schools were good at teaching writing, but they all graduated from college and got jobs that allowed them to be self-supporting. However, these were all people who had college-educated, high-earning parents to provide emotional and financial support. I think the salient factor in college experience is family educational background more than it is any particular high school. [/quote] Good point [/quote]
