[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC Public High Schools are horrible with the exception of Wilson. All the pro public school parents, put your money where your mouth is and try any of the public high schools in DC with the exception of Wilson for your kids. [/quote] Wilson is ridiculously overcrowded and mediocre. The nail on their coffin was the “honors for all” program.[/quote] But a couple of seniors (out of 500+) get into Ivies every year! Haha.[/quote] All with some hook, esp. activist legacies [/quote] Is this true? Either way, I don't know if this is anything to get upset over. A "few" out of 500 students... so, <1% odds? And that's not even factoring in how prepared academically (and socially) the lucky few are once they land at an Ivy. I'd honestly rather have my child end up at Michigan or Boston College prepared to hit the ground running than Penn where they're immediately in over their head.[/quote]
