[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, PPs have very little understanding of the underpinning philosophy of IB and low expectations of our students. From the IB website: "International Baccalaureate® (IB) programmes aim to do more than other curricula by developing inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who are motivated to succeed. We strive to develop students who will build a better world through intercultural understanding and respect." Sounds like perfect goals for students at Watkins Mill (and everywhere!) https://www.ibo.org/benefits/why-the-ib-is-different/ [/quote] Sadly, in US, kids are not prepared for IB rigor. RMIB kids do well because, well, these kids are "special". Remember IB was originally developed to teach kids of diplomats who often are highly educated themselves.[/quote]
