[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCI just graduated what their 3rd class?  3 classes.  The high school has barely started and people on here complaining they don’t have their stuff together and are not as strong as some of the suburban programs.  No sh’t Sherlock Holmes.  These people have no perspective.  Why don’t you tell us how the other programs did after they graduated their 3rd class, not now when they have been around for 30, 40 years or whatever.

I’ve been watching the trajectory of the school.  They are on a rapid trajectory and getting better.  They already have kids getting into Ivy’s URM or not.  [b]They already have kids scoring high in the 40[/b]. Sure some of these families might have supplemented or not but if you don’t have a solid IB program, you are not going to be scoring anywhere even in the mid 30’s.  Not only that, but the high school offers 3 tracks, not just IB diploma, and juggling to manage those tracks and offers variety of pathways for different kids.

Bottom line.  You want what the good suburban IB schools offer now, move to the burbs.  BTW, good luck getting your kid into some of those programs.  But if you have time like some of us do, watch the trajectory of the school in the next 3-5 years.  This is just the beginning and early infancy.

Which kids scored in the 40s?  We're in the DC high school and don't know of a single student who's scored higher than the mid 30s.  We've asked around for each graduating class to keep tabs on points totals. If DC wanted to see scores in the high 30s+, they track academically outside math and language in middle school. There's nothing stopping them from doing it but admins won't even consider it. Bottom line, DCI already has the students to do much better. Apologists like you aren't doing them any favors.
