[quote=Anonymous]I am a Wilson parent. My DC is not yet in the thick of college admissions, but is so far happy at Wilson. I went to a famous university, and I’m impressed by most of the teachers. But if you are an eighth grade parent, and Wilson's 2021 college admissions list is not up to your standards, why *wouldn’t* you send your child to a DCPS selective school or try for private high school? The college admissions game is pretty tough these days; and it’s unclear how much even private secondary schools can do to place students at the mist elite universities. Even private school parents sometimes resort to private counselors. Given this challenging context, if it’s your sense that your student will be at a relative disadvantage coming from Wilson —everyone is entitled to their opinion, even if simply based on gut instinct — then you owe it to your child and your own peace of mind to make a different choice. It’s so not a big deal. [/quote]
