[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My point is that loads of high achieving Deal (and Hardy, for that matter) kids are now at Wilson--either because they were so pissed off at the process at Walls (several kids I know) or because they preferred Wilson and the opportunities it offers to begin with (my DS and many of their friends). T[b]he PP's hypothesis about the 9th grade class being "rougher" is both full of dog whistles and full of crap[/b].[/quote] Agreed on both counts. And for what it is worth, the student body at Wilson has become significantly more wealthier and whiter over each of the last five years. So to the extent there is a growing drug problem at Wilson (and as a parent who has kids there I have no reason to think there is), it's a white upper middle class problem, not a problem from the "rougher" crowd that PP is referring to.[/quote]
