[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe the issue is more with the test administration at Wilson. I heard that last year's SAT test started 2 hours late and was a very confusing experience for the kids. This can cause some kids to underperform on these tests.[/quote] Bingo, and you are understating the scope of the problem by quite a bit. As the parent of two Wilson students, I will confine my comments to this: there are many very smart and motivated students at the school, and to the extent that they succeed, it’s largely despite Wilson, not because of it. The school is blessed with so many excellent teachers and so many intelligent students, from all parts of the city, and the admin and the school system consistently undermine progress. I will be happy when my kids to graduate.[/quote]
