[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an AA son and live in bounds for Wilson. My son, and those of EVERY single one of my AA friends, went to private after ES or MS. [/quote] I'm white with small kids so totally ignorant here, but is anyone in DCPS worrying about this? Sounds like they lose all the UMC black kids at high school and that's a huge brain drain. Is this ever a topic of discussion or concern by DCPS? [/quote] NP. I'm black with small kids, and we are also zoned for Wilson but will likely go private (for idiosyncratic reasons, although I'm sure Wilson will be fine by the time we have a teenager). I know a few black neighbors with young kids who plan on considering Wilson when the time comes, but I also know a couple of families who currently have teenage boys, and are not considering Wilson. Not sure what DCPS can really do about this, though? I'd love if more educated AA families consider Wilson in the future.[/quote]
