[quote=Anonymous]What leads you to assert that the IB program is "to the detriment of everyone else in the County"? The program meets the needs of many students. I have two students in IB who are very happy with their studies. There are programs that are designed for various groups in FCPS (4th grade strings, SpecEd, athletics, drama, ESL, special transportation services, support for unaccompanied minors, etc. etc.) - why do you find IB to be so different? As others have noted, it fits the FCPS Portrait of a Graduate objectives very closely. I don't understand why the program is so objectionable to some. Is it viewed as 'globalist' or the thin edge of a wedge leading to institution of a curriculum that FCPS doesn't control? I'm reaching here for any insights into what the bases may be for the opposition to IB.[/quote]
