But unlike at WIS, your kid is almost certainly going to be plonked in classes with others who can barely read or do basic math.  It happens at Latin and Two Rivers and will happen at Basis.   Remember that lottery admissions means that luck will be the sole admissions criterion, other than advanced proficiency in one foreign language for 6th graders coming in from feeder schools, and even that will not be in the cards for some of the immersion kids, (e.g. the YY kids coming off the non-immersion track).

Questions  about ability grouping at DCI go unanswered and recent charter MS and HS history doesn't provide great cause for optimism.  This means that earning the full IB diploma by the end of senior year in HS may or may not work out for your advanced kid.  No DC charter is launching Ivy League careers yet people, and that may not be happening in a decade either.   WIS takes high-end kids, period, and tracks to boot.

Wow!  That bile is really disfiguring you, poor thing!

The oldest DC charters are barely 10 y.o. and attempting to launch their students into the competitive collegiate application space.  It appears that they have succeeded.

With all due respect, what the fuck is wrong with you that you can't recognize this?  Do you suck at statistics in particular, or just in general as an underperforming human being?
