[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SWW is also not your typical public school though, right? It has many aspects that are private school-like.[/quote]

You are correct. It is an interview/magnet school--so it is apply and opt in, like a private. We know lots of kids who have gone there. It's a path to a good college. The kids do work really hard, just like private school kids,[/quote]

Maybe. But 3.93 AVERAGE is crock. It’s enough to discredit the whole enterprise [/quote]

It’s a magnet high school only. Meaning they don’t have any subpar kids in their high school that are there because they stared in 1st grade. You had to have a 3.9 to even apply. How is it a crock? You’re unhinged. TJ prob has similar GPA.[/quote]

Read the article. Even the school administrators in the article are saying there is something seriously wrong with the current grading system and are warning the students that this will probably not last.[/quote]

Excellent. Then we can all breathe a sigh of relief that the plucky little private schoolers are not up against so very, very difficult a challenge.  [/quote]
