[b]What an absolutely mortifying post.[/b] Seems like Walls dodged a bullet in this case.[/quote]

Nonsense, spare us your woke BS.  Walls TURNED DOWN a 9th grader who hit the qualifying mark for PSAT National Merit for the District?!  You know that this is a jurisdiction where the number of public school National Merit Scholarship semifinalists is in the single digits annually grand total, vs. as many as 15 or 16 from Sidwell alone.

What a travesty.  This grim outcome should be an embarrassment for DCPS.  Very sorry to hear this, PP, above. Your 9th grader should be extremely proud and will surely go far.  In NYC, Boston, Boston, Chicago, Dallas-Houston a bona fide magnet HS would surely have snatched him or her up.

Sounds like Walls' admissions standards have become a real joke in the last couple of years, a great shame for the best and brightest HS students in our public schools and their acceptable-public-high-school-seeking families.[/quote]
