[quote=Anonymous]I never understand the posts like a few PPs who dis Wilson as if it's something you stepped in, like dog poop. Particularly the Academies, since in this thread we are talking about high-achieving students. At Wilson, the motivated, high achieving kids are in the Academies, not the general population. And when you compare the Wilson academies to Banneker, and the outputs ... it's not really even a contest. Banneker's average SAT scores reported last years are LOWER than the national average, for goodness sake. Think about that. (Free SAT test prep is offered at Banneker, for the naysayers who quick to announce that SAT scores only reflect the ability to pay for the Kaplan review course) So, sure, Banneker should probably be in the mix for parents of conscientious students of all skin tones. But to wrinkle your nose at Wilson (academies) in comparing the two is just ... confusing.[/quote]
