[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, Wilson is uniquely positioned to fail over the next 12-18 months due to years of lack of political will that make this type of school helpless to meet the challenges presented by pandemic. Half of the student population is heavily dependent on mass transit which makes it unsafe to open for at least a year. And, in order to provide reasonably effective on-line instruction it requires that students be generally grouped by academic level, which, for political reasons is far from the case at Wilson. It’s hard enough to provide in-person instruction to kids with wide ranging skills. It’s almost impossible to do on line, especially for teachers who have never done it. [/quote] This is not unique to Wilson. Stop with the drama. [/quote] There is so much drama around Wilson and Deal being big. I’m not sure why parents think they can recreate their own high school experience in the Midwest or wherever in a large city.[/quote] Sending kids to overcrowded schools when other schools are under-enrolled is bad management. And in the case of Wilson and Deal it is the result of blatant racism and classism. DCPS parents who send OOB kids to Wilson and who fight to avoid getting rezoned out of Wilson are racist, classist, or both. There is no other way around it. [/quote]
