This person is gaslighting you. W's aren't like that at all. The Wootton (and many other W incidents) are artificially blown out of proportion by Jawando or Wolfe. If you look carefully at the "W" incidents, you'll find it mostly consists of desk scribbles, yelling in a parking lot, or a black student using the 'n' word, etc. Compare this to attempted murder in Blair's parking lot in '21, loaded ghost gun in '22, ghost gun parts confiscation in '23, and it's a whole different class of incidents. Check the safety profiles of the schools and you'll see what I mean. But if you really are dead-set against a 'W', but you really want your son to thrive, I've heard good things about two schools.
1. Poolesville. At one time the Blacks there averaged the highest SAT's out of any HS.
2. QO. It's low-key with fewer violent incidents than you'll find in DCC.
Good luck!

Those rankings are primarily about a school's overall SES, for which race is a good proxy. You need to dig deeper than those silly report cards to see the bigger picture.

If anything they have a leg up as they get minority scholarships as college puts students in a lifetime of debt, they get pay outs based on race such as with Monifuh, the law if lenient toward the gang violence in classrooms- we will inflate grades, and paint a rosy picture when minorities harass teachers, etc.
The systemic racism card seems to be coming from the oligarchs who want to divide the working class by race. Just another reason for worker to unite against the oligarchs. Dont believe this narrative of races are the reason for America being a corporate wasteland. Corporations greed and shady corrupt oligarchs are the problem.
