[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The MCPS position is that they were failures because RMIB was still around as a countywide program, and if there are no countywide programs then the regional ones will succeed.[/quote] I don't think that will work. Look at the IB schools in Fairfax County which are open to transfers from neighboring AP schools. Many of them are perceived to be failures. And many more students transfer out to AP schools from IB schools. A magnet IB program like the one at Richard Montgomery succeeds because it brings together academically competitive students who are fully invested in IB. [/quote] Yep, but Taylor is going to break-up that RM IB cohort because of his murky perception of equity. He will only not do it if the BOE votes in opposition to his regional program initiative.[/quote]
