Watkins Mill IB program- any experiences?

[Anonymous]

So it seems like we are all processing HS application decision. My child was accepted to Watkins Mills IB and on waitlist for all Poolesville program (child prefer Ecology). I’ve seen past posts talking about the issues in Watkins Mills school overall but have also read old posts saying how nice the school within a school feel and the ability to be a big fish in a small pond.

Does anyone have any experiences and insights to Watkins Mills IB program especially recent ones? How are the IB teachers? How are clubs and extracurriculars?

Thanks in advance!

I’ve heard good things about the IB program at WM.

We're on the same boat. While the IB curriculum is same at both RM and WM, the opinions are more in favor of the the RM High. The WM High has been rated poorly in general, so parents who have their kids at WM High in the IB program - please share your experience. Debating between NW High Middle College Program and WM High IB Program. Thanks in advance.
