[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And yet they do imply a couple of things that people might be disappointed in when they look more closely: International Baccalaureate, which many people seek, is NOT offered, and language immersion is NOT offered. Big difference.
"The goal of Creative Minds International Public Charter School is to offer students a rigorous education plan that provides them with the skills required for successful participation in a global society. To accomplish our mission, we have designed a highly engaging program based on an international, project –and arts-based curriculum that includes foreign language instruction as well as standards-based literacy and mathematics."

They never claim to offer the IB ([url=http://www.ibo.org/]International Baccalaureate[/url]), they offer the IPC ([url=http://www.greatlearning.com/ipc/]International Primary Curriculum[/url]).  Those are two different things.

They never claim to offer language [i]immersion[/i], they offer foreign language [i]instruction[/i].  Those are two different things.

It seems anyone who has a complaint with that, could start addressing their own dissatisfaction by learning to read.

easy, there CM booster....
no one was saying they did, just that people assume from quickly reading their material that they do offer the IB and Language Immersion, and then are disappointed to find out they don't. Both of these items have been sources of confusion on this listserv and in community discussions. [/quote]
