[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not exactly sure where I fall on the honors for all divide.
All I know is that my 10 th grader had a boring and unchallenging year at Wilson last year. When I asked an administrator about it, he said point blank that the goal in 9th grade is to try and bring up struggling and remedial students and that is probably why my kid was bored. 10th grade is a little better since my kid is taking 2 APs and is finding them challenging but some of his regular classes are super easy. I get that Wilson is in a tough spot trying to serve kids who range from 5th grade proficiency to upper college level capabilities without being given adequate resources from DCPS but it is unfortunate they pay no attention to trying to address the needs of all kids.[/quote]

Wow, that response is a huge red flag if that is how the school views your child.  But I’m not surprised.  DCPS doesn’t care about the kids who are doing well because they will graduate.  Their focus is on the struggling students at the expense of not challenging the top students.[/quote]
