[quote=Anonymous][quote]Anonymous wrote: Why is IB only at the lower-SES high schools? That alone makes me suspicious of it. It isn't. In fairfax county, it is at Marshall, Robinson, and South Lakes, none of which are low SES school. The program is also in place at a couple other schools which are low SES, but this is definitely not an "only" situation.[/quote] Look at the poorest schools in the county. Look at the wealthiest. Do you see a theme? IB would have been adopted en mass if it had value. I mean, have you seen the AAP forums? Fairfax parents with money will take any edge. It's the poor schools, like Lee and Mount Vernon and Edison and Annadale and Jeb Stuart that are all stuck with this crap.[/quote]
