[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Our home high school also is IB, but it is a low performing school. While IB is an excellent curriculum it was pretty evident that the student who went into IB had to be pretty high performing student with great foundational knowledge and support at both home and school. I find it absolutely amazing that [b]MCPS thinks that IB is the cure all for achievement gap[/b] if only they can have both PYP and MYP in place. The truth is that low achieving ES and MS are in no way able to produce students who can handle the IB program in HS. The number of students in low performing IB schools who end up doing the diploma or even a substantial number of IB courses is dismal. Why are we spinning our wheels on this? If a magnet IB HS is put in Bethesda I will have no problem with it. [/quote] MCPS doesn't.[/quote]
