[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a graduate of a W school I can their lead over non W schools has been shrinking over the years and the shine is wearing off due tot he high stress put on the students.  One of the W schools actually has part of the day for relaxation to reduce stress, seriously-wtf, this is supposed to be a great time in a kids life, why put so much pressure on them.

[b]WJ, B-CC Einstein, Blair, Northwest, Sherwood used to be awful school and now they are right up with the W schools[/b].

btw there is only one W school and that is and always has been Whitman but as I said the shine is not so bright anymore with the latest drug arrests and assaults a simple read of the weekly police report will show you that.  [/quote]

By what measure are these schools right up there? WJ is a W school.

Sherwood and Northwest have SAT scores of 1538 and 1577. Whitman is 1900 and Churchill  is 1838. That is almost a 300 - 400 point spread. BCC is closet at 1711.

SAT Scores, Einstein only 62.3 percent scored a 3 or higher, at Churchill it is 85.9 and Whitman 90.2.

You didn't include Blair.  It's actually the closest at 1747.  You'd need the spread of scores (standard deviation at least) to know how different, if at all, the top schools are for scores.  [/quote]

Oops, I meant Blair is 1729.  [/quote]
