[quote=Anonymous]My kid plans to apply to SWW this year but keeps hearing negative things about it from other kids, esp HS kids. Almost all the HS kids we know who went to Deal keep saying that the kids they know at SWW mostly hate it - HW is often just busy work, very few extracurriculars, not much going on besides academics which are decent but not stellar. It is on the GW campus but not much connection with GW except you can maybe take some classes there. Any DC HS gives you the option of taking college classes your senior year so I'm not sure that is such a unique benefit. One or two kids we know at SWW love it but others are more meh. Apparently, lots of kids say their parents forced them to choose SWW over Wilson or Duke Ellington. The application process is also a bit strange. Not sure what to think. [/quote]
