[quote=Anonymous]The whole IB thing in elementary and middle school is odd. No one is clamoring for it. Why is APS pushing it on people who are perfectly happy with neighborhood schools (Westover--via Reed and Swanson)? I get making the HS IB program equally accessible to everyone in the county. I don't get creating "IB" schools out of whole cloth. Jefferson chose to adopt an IB focus, but it is not a county wide program. We've never had county wide elementary or middle school IB. Can we put this rest? While we're at it, why are we watering down the immersion program by spreading it across another middle school? There can't be "increased demand" if we only have 2 immersion elementaries and they stay the same size. Why do we need more middle school specialty programs? Why can't we just work on having good middle schools?[/quote]
