[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're not at that stage yet (doing MS orientation), but I'm already curious about the IB options. From what I understand, there are one of three options: 1. Full IB diploma 2. General diploma with elective IB classes (similar to AP) 3. General diploma (no IB classes) Is this correct? If so, I already know that #3 isn't for us, so I'd be more curious to learn about the distinctions between 1 and 2.[/quote] Your language is slightly off. FCPS offers a Standard diploma, an Advanced Studies diploma, and an Applied Studies diploma: https://www.fcps.edu/graduation-requirements-and-course-planning/first-time-ninth-2018-19 An IB diploma isn't offered by FCPS but by the IBO through the IB program offered at Marshall and some schools. The full IB diploma is comparable to taking multiple AP courses in different subject areas at schools that offer AP rather than IB. [/quote]
