[quote=Anonymous]It isn’t an issue at those elementary and middle schools. Kilmer and Thoreau MS feed into both AP and IB schools so they don’t have the IB program geared towards middle schools (MYP). Overall AP is more flexible and generally preferred by FCPS parents. A number of schools in FCPS got IB in the late 90s and early 00s because it was considered novel at the time and FCPS thought it might help stem white flight in some areas. It did not have that effect and FCPS stopped converting any more AP high schools to IB (and opened two new AP high schools). Marshall’s reputation has improved because of all the growth in and around Tysons, not IB. [/quote]
