the look is just cosmetic. Small fixes will change that.
The price is reasonable

Cosmetic my ass this is a tear-down that got Frankenstein'd

So there's a huge division btw. the two groups. Furthermore, it's not as though IB is a huge program. IB in the DCC and NEC - and other schools that aren't test in - doesn't draw in a large crew. So you have a small group being held to high expectations. The program has integrity, as the assessments are international and those drive instruction. But it's too small to make an impact on the entire school.

Do you have personal experience with Einstein? I do. Both of my kids went there and did great. They continued on to good colleges and the elder is now in medical school. Their friends from HS have likewise done well.

We loved Einstein.

That is not responsive to the question. Do you have personal experience with this high school?

If your kid is in med school, then YOU don't have current or recent experience with Einstein. The demographics in the area have changed dramatically in the past five years.

My son graduated last year. His sister is in med school.

I hear Einstein is better, not worse than it was ten years ago.

I am still interested in hearing whether the PP criticizing it has any kids there.
