[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From what I hear, it's pretty easy to transfer between Marshall and Madison by stating preference for either IB or AP.[/quote]

This.

Re: The posts above about high schools being closed to transfers: When DC wanted a different HS (zoned for Madison, wanted Marshall for IB), we were told not to let a "closed to transfers" listing on the FCPS "dashboard" web page deter us; the word was that for most academic program transfers, there is room. Friends whose kid transferred to Madison for AP were told the same thing. Everybody ended up where they wanted to be. If you're going by the "closed" sign on that dashboard page, don't. Contact the HS you DC wants to attend and ask directly. The dashboard page is not always reflective of enrollment on the day you check it. So it's better to ask. It seems the schools try hard to accommodate HS academic transfers. If someone above has had an academic transfer form returned as rejected and was told that a school is truly shut to every transfer, academic or not, tell us about it here because I haven't yet heard of it happening, and would be concerned if it were.[/quote]
