[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, rising 9th graders to Wilson could simply decide to home school their kids for one year.  The self-study subject books are readily available, and grade-level-or-above kids could arguably learn more through self-study than the nothingburger they're going to get in a mainstream class.  Weekly Science and Art self-study are right there at the Smithsonian.  Then re-enter at 10th grade for the AP courses.[/quote]

The fact that that is a serious option is an indication of a failure on the part of the school.[/quote]

+1 absolutely ridiculous[/quote]

What's ridiculous is parents on this thread.  You guys have really gone off the rails.  Please, please please homeschool your [b]snowflakes[/b]!  And not just for freshman year.[/quote]

No need to go all Trumpian on us.

It is not too much to ask that the biggest and best comprehensive high school in the city offer classes at levels appropriate for the wide range of students attending. Wilson is already not doing that for 9th grade, and these changes may exacerbate the problem. It's hard to understand how behind the times Wilson is until you have a student there and compare to what your friends' and relatives' kids are doing in 9th grade at other public schools, whether in the area or not.
