[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And to PP what did you mean "if you are in a good W school" Wheaton?[/quote] Not the PP, but "W school" is shorthand for a cluster of high schools that serve a higher income/higher education demographic in the western portion of Montgomery County, and all have W in their names: Whitman, Wootton, Walter Johnson, Winston Churchill (did I miss one?). Not Wheaton which is located in a lower socioeconomic area of the county. Because of where those "W schools" are located, they are full of super-achievers. The PP's point was that another school, like Wheaton, a bright kid can be a big fish and may stand out at college admissions time.[/quote]
