[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Robyn Lady said at the work session on KAA yesterday that she wants to eliminate AP in FCPS because it's too expensive.

What exactly does she want to replace AP with - clearly she doesn't want to replace it with IB, which she knows is even more expensive - and how would this serve FCPS students?

I hope she misspoke and meant dump IB. That I can support. [/quote]

She said the new western HS can’t be an IB school because it’s too close to South Lakes, which is IB.  But then she went on to say they need to get rid of all the AP schools because it’s too expensive and replace AP with “Carnegie,” only to say later she really meant “Cambridge.”

Yet IB is more expensive than AP and she said nothing about getting rid of IB.  [/quote]

Yes, and she said when they bought the school that this would be great to reduce the overcrowding at Chantilly.  But, then at a later work session (after meeting with Fairfacts/Great Falls) she said it should be a magnet/academy because it would be a shame to eliminate those "beautiful small spaces" in KAA.

Not sure what her agenda is, but she does represent Dranesville. There are a lot of people in Dranesville against this new school.[/quote]
