[quote=Anonymous] DD had a perfect record at a private k-8. She went to WIS for its full IB diploma program. WIS offers many IB course options, and had excellent teachers. DD and her peers who got high IB scores did extremely well in top colleges and graduate programs. WIS also had many opportunities for nerdy kids to participate in sports, athletics, and arts. It's a small school, and kids who want to join an activity can, without the competition from elite athletes, musicians, etc, that you would find at a big public high school IB program. The IB is graded externally, so there is not a sense of favored students getting better grades. [/quote]
