[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't really care about academic "reputation," but what makes you so certain Woodward will have inferior teachers and course offerings? [/quote]

Because WJ already have established advanced classes and will have humanities magnet. Good teachers will prefer to stay with what they know vs going to a new school to face challenges. Yes, Taylor and co are saying that all schools will have almost the same advanced classes but it never works like that in practice. I hope I am wrong, but I am afraid that Woodward will struggle to attract enough interest among students to offer advanced classes as many students will run to WJ for humanities or Wheaton for STEM. Art magnet will hurt everyone except true art prodigies.[/quote]

WJ will have older teachers, because those with seniority will have their choice and those without will have to find another school once the population declines. Older is more experienced, but isn't necessarily better all around.[/quote]
