[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The program is expensive and 80% of the kids are not using it for its intended purpose.[/quote] lmao the IB diploma program is not expensive. It consists of 8 school-based teacher positions (out of ~25,000 full-time staff) and cost $3.3 million in FY25 (out of a $4bn total FCPS budget so 0.08% of the budget).[/quote] DP. It's more expensive than AP, and provides limited benefits while adding unnecessary complexity to FCPS, inviting pupil placements, and complicating things like boundary adjustments. If FCPS really wants to be revising boundaries every five years, they should get rid of IB. [/quote]
