[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is great to hear that some of you have good experiences at Wilson. My kid is in 10th grade and I worry that Wilson has made her jaded and cynical before her time. She is always having to argue with teachers and redo work because they lost her hw. She is a perfectionist and teachers get mad when she asks them why she got a B+ or A- in an exam because they always say [b]you should be happy with your grade, we are worried about kids who are failing and don't have time for kids who are doing fine.[/b] She gets placed in random electives that she doesn't want and her counselor just shoos her off and says sorry, nothing can be done.  English has been very weak in 9th and 10th which worries me because you need to be a good writer to do well in college. I guess some smart kids are able to do well in college despite their Wilson experience rather than because of it. I'm hoping that 11th grade will be better.

Never our experience and the bolded -- first I have ever heard of that.  Very odd though it seems as though you may be getting this info from your child and as we all know as parents of teens.  They lie - a lot.  You can always reach out to a teacher or the counselor if you think there is a problem.[/quote]
