[quote=Anonymous]Hello?  People who are turning this into a "Marshall is great/Marshall sucks" debate?  The OP wanted info on the IB program to help her determine if it's a good fit for her kid.  You're not adding anything with this argument, so go post elsewhere.

OP, I have a son in the program at Marshall now.  We highly recommend it, even if our kid doesn't get the full IB diploma.  The "Theory of Knowledge" class alone was worth the price of admission.  It's like an intro to philosophy class with lots of discussion, and our son loves it.  The program as a whole has been challenging and I feel ithas prepared him well for college.  Do email Carlota Shewchuk (say "shev-chuck"), the IB coordinator.  She's a wonderful teacher, a super mentor for the IB kids, and very responsive to parents.  She can give you or direct you to all the info you need.  And to the poster who slammed Marshal admin for caring about scores and ratings and not kids, I can only say that has NOT been our experience.[/quote]
