[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bottom line: School Board keeps claiming we are in a budget crisis and don't have enough money. AP and IB target the same kids and most prefer AP. Both are not sustainable in a school unless it is an extremely large school with high SES. Get rid of IB. AP is cheaper.[/quote] Financial considerations are absolutely a valid criticism. Both in a single school a non-starter. A few IB schools scattered and reasonably accessible to all is an option. Folks in McLean and Langley have no problem with having the option to send their kid to Marshall if IB is their preferred program.[/quote]
