Wellesley High School in Massachusetts and Woodrow Wilson High School in California were very different schools. First of all, Wellesley High School was a preparatory school for young girls whose parents were affluent enough to pay for the private school located in a New England style atmosphere of having social standards and demanding good grades from their students. Woodrow Wilson High School was a coed public school with students from a mix of ethnic backgrounds whose families were not financially well off. Wellesley High School was more rigid in its curriculum and standards with the goal of preparing young girls to be valuable members of society. Woodrow Wilson High School was not as specific in standards and did not see the potential of the students to be valuable members of society and their goal was just getting them to pass and graduate from high school.
