[quote=Anonymous]I will say this about Woodson: I wouldn't recommend it if your child has any sort of learning, emotional or social quirks. We sent our oldest who struggled and my view -- as a teacher elsewhere -- was that admin really didn't care/want to focus on mental health and wellness until it was too late. I also saw a culture where teachers -- my kid's -- were not terribly supportive and didn't make the pressure feeling of the place any less. It was an intense four years and my son really, really hated that there wasn't a space for quirky kids who needed more support and less intensity.

We pupil placed to Robinson for our second who finished the IB program with a diploma and it's just night and day. My second kid had a mentor teacher who was amazing.

Strangely both kids ended up at W&M. My son called his first year of college de-programming from Woodson.  DD just saw W&M as Robinson 2.0.

Both schools are fine academically. Socially and culturally, they are completely different animals.[/quote]
