[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] There is one poster in particular who pops up on every IB thread and starts venting about how much IB costs the county and how she feels it isn't worth it. Sour grapes. She's bitter that other kids are benefitting from that funding and she wants the program eliminated. [/quote] Not that poster. But, the IB program costs significantly more than the AP--and serves far fewer kids in FCPS. Coordinators alone cost close to 1M$ [/quote] And not only that, but the kids that IB serves are where all the FARMs and ESL kids in the county are. We all know those kids will likely amount to nothing no matter how much money we throw at their schools. [/quote] Some of them are...but Marshall, Robinson, and South Lakes don't fit that demographic. [/quote]
