[quote=Anonymous]It's interesting, talking with a mom with HS now, she didn't really know where things were. Her son isn't that interested in academics so he's in howard county honors classes instead of AP and the common denominator in there is atrocious. So you either have kids barely in school and not at all motivated, or you're in AP. There doesn't seem to be much middle ground, at least in their high school. This concerns me since I have a very intellectual kid with some writing issues so IB and AP classes will be extremely difficult. But if she's going to get any intellectual challenge, that's where she needs to be? I have no idea what we will do when we get there. I don't want to 504 her way out of the writing, but her output will probably always be very slow and labored and a fraction of what her peers can churn out. I think IB will be her worst nightmare, since it seems to require even more writing.[/quote]
