[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok so anyone here switch from private to Wilson?  Thoughts?  Feeling like private is a bit over rated right now.  I have three kids and its a hefty price tag.  Would love to stay home but can t because of that private school tuition.  Since I'm from Dc and know what DC public school were like in the 80's it's very hard for me to shake that idea.  Thanks!  [/quote]

I know a number of IB families who sent their brilliant (but not above 90% percentile) students to Wilson (despite acceptances and resources for privates) as this will give them higher chances for top colleges. [/quote]

I get what you're saying and we thought our child did exceptionally well coming out of a good charter (better, I'd guess, than from a private and our child declined a few)--but I hope the reason goes above and beyond this.
