[quote=Anonymous]I think there are two different evaluations being made and combined in one. Many critics of IB in FCPS are critical of the program being placed in schools where it is not well utilized and not valued by the communities. (i.e. low income schools and too many in a small area of the county -- Lee, Edison, Mt. Vernon). The criticism of IB is more about the way it is being implemented. Generally, I think people agree that the substance of the IB curriculum is very rigorous and is an incredible accomplishment for those who are able to complete it. A lot of the dislike for IB is about the policy of where it is located and how it is not a success. A lot of the same people would agree that the curriculum has a lot to offer (even if it is less flexible than AP).[/quote]
