[quote=Anonymous]I have found Deal to be a good match for kids with a wide range of interests. Lots of extracurricular options and do not underestimate the importance (and convenience) of attending a neighborhood school, especially in middle school when the kids start to be more independent. Wilson offers B/C calculus and that is an option in 11th grade if your child takes Algebra in 7th grade. My DC with strong interests in both math/science and the humanities has done extremely well at Deal/Wilson and is planning on an engineering major. Basis and Latin weren't an option for my DC at the time, but I don't think I would have chosen Basis as I personally don't agree with the super acceleration on math. Plus my DC found that Deal/Wilson were both challenging but not over the top leaving time for sports and other activities outside of school.[/quote]
