[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No delusion.  RM Neighborhood kids can apply at the end of 10th grade.  They are not competing against the whole county.  Kids that have been successful in 9th and 10th grade have a decent chance of getting a spot...  Several kids in my neighborhood have taken advantage of this.  It is a big plus to living in the cluster.  Of course it is a challenging program with many requirements so it is not something that is right for some kids.[/quote]

+1  This is one of the reasons we chose RM cluster neighborhood over Wootton.  Maybe my kids won't get into the IB program, but at least they will have had the exposure to it in JW, and a better chance to get in in HS.  I don't necessarily like the rigorous part of the curriculum, but I do like the fact that it has an international flavor to it. Plus, we like the diversity at RM over Wootton, both in racial and SES - hugely important to us.[/quote]
To both posters... can you describe/rate your experience at JW?  Did you find the IB middle years program worthwhile?[/quote]
