[quote=Anonymous]FCPS put it into about 8 schools and then bought more IB curriculum for some elementary and middle schools. It pays for curriculum, training, test or exam fees, postage, etc. Yes FCPS has curriculum people in instructional services and AP is at the high performing high schools. Very few students get it or are in the IB diploma track. The diploma means zilch since it is issued long after the college admissions process is over. IB schools even have an extra staff person to funnel the paperwork and help the students deal with the program. It went in to schools to make the school more attractive to those who would otherwise pupil place out . Few pupil place into South Lakes or other schools for the program from places like Madison, Langley, Mclean. [/quote]
