[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a rising sophomore at Wilson.  Great experience.   Strong track for college bound kids, a big peer group of similar kids, and academic and extracurricular opportunities galore.

The drawback is that there are plenty of Wilson kids on a different track - it will be up to you and your kid to make sure they stay on the right track![/quote]

Thanks!  Do you ever get the feeling that there is pressure to fall off track?  Nice community among college-bound kids?[/quote]

Very nice community among the college bound, and even some of the non-college bound.    My child is in the music program and has friends from both groups.    I wouldn't say there is pressure to fall off the track (and in some ways it is nice to be able to point to cautionary tales that are real and right there) - but the option is there.   At Wilson your child must - and will learn how to - be responsible for their own academic well-being.    This is a great skill to learn before going off to college![/quote]
