[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Give us break. You're really splitting hairs over a school obviously that isn't UMC friendly yet for 1st-5th, other than for a few brave, particularly open-minded, and perhaps desperate souls. Buy or rent IB for Maury in NE. [/quote] Then in 2 years OP will have to figure out middle school, because if JO Wilson isn't good enough for her, Eliot-Hine sure won't be. OP, go visit or talk to the principals and teachers at JO Wilson, Ludlow-Taylor, and Watkins. They are more alike than they are different; though test scores and upper-grades gentrification is lower at JOW, it's where the current Ward 6 councilman and the previous DCPS chancellor enroll/ed their kids. None of these schools will have a giant cohort of kids far beyond grade level. All of them are used to parents who believe (correctly in many but not all cases) that their kids are very advanced, and should be able to tell you how they differentiate. There are also things you can do outside of school to supplement, from CTY to writing tutors to dance and karate and Sports on the Hill and the DPR swim team at Rumsey pool and foreign language classes and the DC Youth Orchestra program (which meets at Eastern High School nearby).
