[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an FYI, Walls was expecting only 40 people at the open house and there were about 200- perhaps the impression you got from the open house was colored by the fact that the school was overrun and overwhelmed very unexpectedly, -and. Should chalk it up to a fluke?[/quote].

This does not make sense that they only anticipated about 40 people. Seems like poor planning to me when well over a 1000 kids take the admissions tests each year and they only thought 40 would show up :roll: [/quote]

There were 3 open house events -- yesterday's was the last one and closest to the lottery opening. They should have been able to handle a crowd.

But the fact remains that the few good DCPS high schools (Banneker, Walls, Wilson) don't need to market themselves. They don't care if your kids attend or not because they have plenty of applicants/students enrolling.

And SWW isn't doing anything particularly different with their academics because the school is AP-class oriented, and the College Board dictates the content and pacing of those classes. [/quote]
