[quote=Anonymous]Another happy Wilson parent here. While I may have worried about how good the education was at Wilson, when my first kid was going through, now I know there was nothing to worry about. The bottom line is that Wilson kids, for the most part, do great in college. I think parents take for granted the exposure that our Wilson kids get to serious issues, debate, reading, discussions, analysis, etc. And that is happening every day at Wilson, in pretty much every class, in my experience. So maybe they're not being beaten over the head with homework like at Walls (which I have seen crush many a Walls kids' spirit and love of learning). Maybe to your outside eyes, it doesn't seem all that rigorous. I know that my friends and relatives in Fairfax, Loudon and Prince Wiliam Co schools would all love it if their kids were pushed and could have the experiences that the vast majority of Wilson kids get. It's a special place, and yeah, it's not perfect, but you're dreaming if you think any high school- public, private or charter, is. [/quote]
