[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child goes to Lewis.  Is in all honors classes, extracurricular sports, etc.  Has a similar cohort that hangs together.  They are all motivated and college bound.  I tell them they can do great things at Lewis and stand out when they apply for college instead of competing with all the other high stress schools in this area.  Your child will find their peeps no matter what school they go to... don't let DCUM influence you.  Most have no clue about Region 6.[/quote]

What is the experience for kids who aren't in all honors? We're WSHS. I have a junior who's super motivated, in all APs for core classes, etc.  I wouldn't be worried about her should she go to Lewis (and obviously timing-wise, she will graduate from WS, so moot point really).

On the other hand, I have a freshman who very much struggles with motivation and effort.  He may only take one AP his whole HS career if he's lucky. We're minorities but only speak English.  How would someone like him fare at Lewis?[/quote]
