[quote=Anonymous]I interview Wilson students for an Ivy League school. My sense is that Wilson is best for students who do not need hand-holding.  While the administration has improved over the past few years, there are still a lot of gaps in instruction. One year I had a student who got an A in Chinese even though he did not have a Chinese teacher (there was a problem with the green card so the teacher did not arrive until January). There is not as much choice at Wilson for higher level courses (and those courses are almost exclusively white).  The new academy structure has made mini-schools within Wilson.  Additionally, the sports options at Wilson are also limited and require a lot of travel on the part of student/parents. So if your child is out-going, very focused and able to fend for themselves, they can get a fantastic education at Wilson.  We opted for the more stable (although overcrowded) environment of the B-CC cluster and have been happy.  IB for us was a big reason.   [/quote]
