[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are they stuck with it? It's costing the county millions to have schools that aren't desirable in terms of property taxes. It's also costing them millions to have the IB program which is more expensive than AP. [/quote] If you live in an IB school district, you can transfer to an AP school - and vice versa. It is nice to have options.[/quote] Our AP option is a much lower performing school. My kids will be sticking with IB. [/quote] That is very rarely the case in FCPS. Maybe if you are zoned for Marshall and Falls Church is your only AP option. Otherwise the AP schools are usually more sought after. Look at all the transfers out of Annandale, Lee and Mount Vernon.
