[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Writing and humanities focus for more math/science oriented child. [/quote] My kid is a rising senior at RMIB. I'd say there is definitely a strong writing/humanities focus, but it's within the context of a math and science program that's as rigorous as your kid wants to make it. It's an all-around program, not a program that emphasizes only humanities or only STEM. Kids take AP science and/or corresponding AP exams in IB science classes (e.g., AP Bio, Chem, or Physics C, following two years of the IB classes). In math, kids can get through multivariable calculus by 12th if they're so inclined, and can take calculus classes corresponding to AP Calc AB and/or BC. They can take three years of CS. It all depends on what they want to focus on. https://www2.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/siteassets/schools/high-schools/r-w/rmhs/ib/2022-2023-ib-course-handbook.pdf[/quote]
