[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not opposed to the IB curriculum, but I've heard enough about over-stressed IB students—and school cultures that glorify that stress—that I'd want to know more about the specific program. [/quote] My kid in a non-magnet MCPS HS has found nothing but encouragement with IB. It’s a lot of work, but they knew that going in. But the trade-off is that that they have fewer course options than the magnet programs offer. It’s been a challenge to patch together the right combination of SL, HL, and AP classes to achieve the highest rigor in every subject. [/quote]
