Instead of making Wilson open to the whole city, they should do the opposite, and make it test-in.
Alas, DC can't see the obvious.

That's what I'd most like to see as a DCPS high school option.
Though recently they watered down some of their admissions standards and now have to do a lot of math remediation.
Well, they wanted fewer Asians and more of everyone else in their demographics.

Agreed. So funny-- we started in 3 rooms in a church with 60 kids, a little red cart of books for a library.
Happy to have helped build something so great for the city.

Well done! That is quite an accomplishment. Are your kids going to DCI?
Now how do you feel about French immersion? There are some parents who need help getting going...

No, it's not even all that close to the experience at an independent school in DC such as Maret or Sheridan. Really, it's not.

Thomson
I'm inbounds for Thomson, although my child is at a different school, and would love to hear your reasoning for it being first choice as I haven't kept up as much as I would have wanted to over the past few years.
I just have a gut feeling about it. I think it is going to be one of those schools within months to a year people are thinking "why didn't I xyz..."
I like the International Baccalaureate model and the option of Mandarin. I like the convenience. The tour I went on felt right. I love driving past it daily and seeing the intergenerational Chinatown families mixing with the "new" downtown families.
"Downtown" and Thomson inboundary proper is changing dramatically. I think we'll be hearing more about Thomson, and I hope to be a part of it.
I put it high on my list and will be pleased if we are given the opportunity.
That sounds great but really...#1?
