[quote=Anonymous]IB parent here, with a child at Hardy now. Here is some news: 1. When I look at things like honor roll, science fair winners, participation in academic contests, I see many, many OOB kids at the top. I would venture to say that the majority of the top performing kids at Hardy are OOB kids. 2. I have no indication that the smart, prepared kids - IB or OOB - with involved, educated families - are hurt in the least by this massive, mythical group of unprepared kids. The kids that are smart, with smart parents that care, are accepted at competitive private high schools, at DCPS magnets like Banneker and SWW, and are performing on par or above their peers from Deal when they get to Wilson. It wouldn't be a bad thing for these kids to have a bigger peer group - but there is nothing at Hardy that is holding them back from academic success. They are succeeding now. And for those interested in the future, its getting even better. [/quote]
