[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a child taking several AP courses at his base school and one Academy course at another school, which is really all that works schedule-wise. The options were: (1) we arranged for transportation to the Academy school in the AM, with FCPS providing transportation back to the base school later in the morning, or (2) he took the class in the middle of the day, with FCPS providing transportation both ways and the kids eating lunch on the bus on the way back to the base school. He opted for the latter. There are some fun electives at the Academies, but I wouldn't pupil place to an IB school like Marshall just for the Academy classes if you prefer the AP curriculum. [/quote] 10:56 here - I hadn't thought about going to the academy school first. Thanks for posting that option, although it may make the school day start quite early. But it is an option to consider. Thank you![/quote]
