[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP what did you mean about bring "bought in" on IB before getting there? What's there to know? Thanks[/quote] Not the PP, but it’s a small high school and almost entirely IB curriculum in upper grades, so you have to be ok with that. It’s not like the larger public schools that have both IB and AP options and more courses generally. We did not fully understand the ramifications of this until our kids got older and likely would not have moved into the district had we known. It can be limiting for some kids or not to their liking.[/quote] Most schools don't have IB AND AP. In FCPS, you do have a choice. If you're zoned to an IB school, you can go to a nearby AP school that has space.[/quote] Washington & Liberty in Arlington has both. So does BCC in Montgomery County. And larger schools just generally have more courses and more sections of each course, so it’s easier to get the courses you want.[/quote]
