[quote=Anonymous]Robinson was the only school in FCPS considered good when they added IB. I expect it only passed muster at the time with guarantees that Robinson was big enough to offer both IB and a significant number of AP classes. Otherwise Robinson would have pushed back against IB like Woodson did when they tried to replace AP with IB there.

Whether it’s to simplify scheduling or shore up the IB program, further curtailing AP at Robinson will just prompt more pupil placements to Lake Braddock. Many of the strongest kids in the pyramid already pupil place to Lake Braddock because that’s where the middle school AAP program is located.

It almost surely doesn’t have anything to do with a secret plan to change the boundaries with Centreville since they now plan to expand Centreville to 3000 seats.

At the end of the day all these changes will just reinforce the existing perception that Oakton, Chantilly, Lake Braddock, and West Springfield are the most desirable schools in western and southern Fairfax.
