[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Wakefield has long been the neglected step-sister of Arlington high schools, and it will take more than a new building and a few trips by Obama and Duncan there to change that. [/quote] What about offering its student college scholarships? Would that attract enough smart kids to transfer?[/quote] Of the three high schools, Wakefield offers the most need-based scholarships, because of a huge endowment. There are many smart kids at Wakefield, and wealthy kids too that live in the Wakefield district. Just a few years ago Wakefield had an Intel Science Fair winner. Scholarships have nothing to do with it. If Wakefield develops its Spanish Immersion program then some of the transfers to Gunston for immersion might transfer to Wakefield. [/quote]
