[quote=Anonymous]They really don't compare. Part of it is academics, but mostly DCPS schools are just different. You can't really compare even a great urban school to a suburban school. Take Wilson, for instance. Yes, they have most of the same course offerings, sports, activities; and many of their students likely out-test their suburban counterparts. But their space is limited, inside and out, their resources are stretched. That being said, the students are navigating a city, and it's disfunction to get there - that gives them something a W, Langley, or McLean school does not. It really comes down to what you feel is important, and what you are willing to live with. [/quote]
