Why are you blasting your nonsensical assumptions all over this board as fact?
If you have an issue with the amount of money spent on IB, move your child to an IB school and reap the benefits.

I know the IB proponents don't like being challenged.  There's an entrenched IB infrastructure within FCPS of IB coordinators, students and parents, so they react negatively whenever anyone suggests a cost-benefit analysis of the program, even though they are limited in numbers.

And, of course, saying that those who raise valid questions about the money spent on IB should move their kids to IB schools is like saying those who dislike large class sizes should move their kids to Title I schools.  It's a knee-jerk "put up or shut up" response that makes a mockery of the claim that IB encourages "critical analysis."  [/quote]

I'm not an IB proponent. I'm a level headed person who has has a kid in each. You, however, are a pompous ass who is speaking with authority using only hearsay and assumptions. [/quote]
