[quote=Anonymous]IB was put in the lower ranked schools by the SB in the hopes that it would attract high achievers from other neighborhoods. For the most part, it did not. I can only speak for my DD who graduated from an AP high school. We considered the IB program, but felt that it would be better if she went to school with others from her community. No regrets. She won a prestigious writing award (beyond school level) while in this high school. She had the opportunity for lots and lots of writing in Honors and AP classes. AP History also requires a lot of writing. DD went on to major in English at a prestigious liberal arts college. [/quote]
