[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am new to this discussion. Can anyone summarize how big a downgrade Tilden area going to Woodward will be compared to WJ? Is Art is done deal for Woodward or some chane of Stem oriented programs can still happen? \ If Whitman safe from all these changes? [/quote] It’s not. It’s will be another w school. [/quote] [b]W school in name with 30% FARMS. Woodward Art school will be a big downgrade from WJ let alone Whitman.[/quote][/b] In terms of student population, Woodward will be fine. It will start as 25-30% FARMS, which is quite OK, and only get better as it is in the great neighborhood. The regional plan is the bigger problem but WJ is in the same boat so it doesn't matter when comparing the two schools. They will be on their own as IB at Kennedy will be useless, and similar for STEM at Wheaton that will be more like an engineering program rather than science program like Blair. And of course, art magnet is nonsense. So if you are worried about losing access to a quality STEM program, you should be. But not because of WJ/Woodward split.[/quote] Most schools are on their own. They will probably be better off than most schools. [/quote]
