[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hard to understand why Banneker bothers with IB Diploma. Sheesh.[/quote] As long as enough kids want to do it, why would they shut it down? The top IB kids have great college outcomes (and for middle class and poorer kids that often means a full ride, too). Plus many people believe the IB curriculum is inherently valuable. And if you don’t feel that way, just do the AP track. [/quote] Um, because IBD is a very expensive program. Do it right or don't bother with the window dressing. The enrollment and exam fees to Geneva alone run public schools tens of thousands of dollars a year. Why not funnel the money into a more robust AP program, with more than one AP science, BC Calc, more than two languages taught. [/quote]
