[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not competitive. It is also not much of a program. Don’t worry. You are not missing much. [/quote] Jefferson's MYP program is comparable to any in the DC area. The real program starts in high school.[/quote] The main differences vs. other APS middle schools are -- world language all three years and a wider variety of languages offered, community service requirement including a project in 8th grade that they present to the school. Other than that, they get IB grades on stuff but those get translated to regular APS grades anyway. And (at least this was the case when my kids were there a few years ago), IBMYP was very big on "reflecting" on your performance. So they had to write these "reflections" after every test, paper, unit, etc. They hated those.[/quote]
