[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Compared to the other schools they are seeing a spike in the FARMS/ESOL enrollment due to the unaccompanied minors arriving from Central America, so I'm not surprised they have a lower graduation rate.  It's still a good school, particularly if you want IB, [b]even if it is not as "sought after" as the others like[/b] Langley, [b]Woodson[/b], etc.[/quote]

Woodson is a train wreck.[/quote]

Care to elaborate? No dog in this fight, but my parents old house was in the pyramid, so many many years ago I went there, so I'm curious.[/quote]

Beyond the suicides

the parental pressure (in particular) is huge at Woodson. The CDC efforts focused on the parents and community awareness.

Go to the Woodson website and read the results of the surveys (underneath The Current Reality at W.T. Woodson High School). One thing they do have going for them is there a new principal. The previous principal was ineffective (in my opinion).
