[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The IB number is still very low and missed the goal Pride had hoped for last spring. She is focused on only giving out feeder numbers rather than IB numbers. [/quote]

Principal Pride is right. Given the organization of DCPS schools after Rhee, her given constituency are now the feeder school , not the IB families. There's several IB 6th graders who are not from feeder schools, so I would not be surprised if the number of 6th graders from feeder schools matched more or less the number of IB 6th graders.

You have to understand that, for a Principal of a diverse school, flagging out in victory the number of 6th grade IB kids (as opposed to feeders school kids) would be seen as an hostile move by a significant part of her current (and potential) families. She is a committed and experience professional, she knows she needs to promote the school for future applicants, but she also and most importantly needs to take care of the currently enrolled students and their families.
