[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have searched the FCPS website in vain for information on whether or not you have to live within the boundaries of a HS offering the IB diploma in order to attend that school.  I called, got voicemail, and no one has returned my call, so I figured I might get an answer here.

Say for example you live in the boundary for McLean HS but want your child to attend Marshall for the IB -- can you petition for your child to attend Marshall so that s/he can go for the IB, since it isn't offered at your base school?  Or would the family[b] have[/b] to live in the boundary for the IB school?

Please no replies debating the pros/cons of IB versus AP, in this particular instance, the child would be coming for senior year only from an overseas/international school environment where continuing with the program in which s/he is already invested is very important.[/quote]

Yes, there is a process through which you can apply to attend the closest IB school.
