[quote=Anonymous]White parent with an 8th grader at Deal this year. I had pushed very hard for my kid to apply at Banneker because I saw a family friend's daughters do very well there. My kid absolutely refused to even consider it. Lots of issues - none of her friends were going there, very few extra curriculars, scared of the high level of academics and being rejected. Long and short Wilson seemed like something that would allow her to find her tribe where as Banneker would put her on treadmill she was not ready for. As a parent I had to accept it was ok if my kid is not ivy bound. However, I am having her consider Howard for college. [/quote]
