[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] New poster. It sounds like the IB diploma is very rigorous and a good option for a very specific type of student. It's too bad that FCPS doesn't put it at a single high school and make it a TJ-style program for the liberal arts. [/quote] So kids with all that work and TOK till six in the evening one day a week can get home even later? No, thanks. That just keeps it easy for rich kids in rich neighborhoods while poor kids in IB schools would have to add two hours of additional bus riding into their days. And many work as well.[/quote] They'd have access to AP, like the kids in the top schools in the county. The incredibly low IB diploma rate at the IB schools in FCPS, particularly the poorer ones, contradicts your suggestion that a lot of poor kids are bothering with TOK. What a scam.[/quote]
