[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d like to hear more about why people have concerns for DCI for high school.[/quote] Search DCI on DCUM. There have been several threads on that topic in the last year alone. In a nutshell, IBD for almost all DCI students isn't the optimal approach. The curriculum isn't designed to meet the needs of students who aren't academic high achievers. IBD was created to meet the needs of diplomats' children in international schools, back in the 1970s. DCI has watered IBD down to try to make it work for most students. You can't expect the sun, the moon and the stars from the set-up.[/quote]
