[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fact that parents still put up with SSMA shows how terrible some IBs are.[/quote] Or how biased and misinformed some parents are about their IB schools. There are some strong elementary schools that are IB for many SSMA parents but there is such a prevelant misconception that charters are inherently better. Our DCPS elementary school has a principal, outstanding teachers who are treated with respect, communication and transparency with families, and an HVAC system that works. [/quote] I'm really glad you're happy at your IB and I have no doubt you're right... about some IBs. Our DD is at our IB currently, so it's not like we weren't willing to give it a chance, but she will not be staying. It's not bias or misinformation. The school won't work for us. It actually has a great principal and some outstanding teachers, but that's not enough, unfortunately. Luckily we have the means to move IB for somewhere better, we just have to downsize and smush.[/quote]
