[quote=Anonymous]PP above, pipe down, spare us your knee-jerk name-calling.

Entitled parents who want....an IB Diploma program on a par with those found in other public school systems in this Metro area. That's just not a tall order. WIS doesn't offer the highest-performing program in the DC Metro area, not by a long shot. The best program is at Richard Montgomery in MoCo. Second best is probably Bethesda-Chevy Chase (not test-in), third best Washington-Liberty in Arlington (not test-in either).

Apparently, your kid hasn't even hit DCI but yet you're certain that parents pushing for a full-fledged IBD program are elitist jerks. Some of us at DCI would really just like to see a lot less teacher turnover, better leadership, serious prep for IB Diploma exams, and enough course offerings to make for a well-rounded program (for now, arts offerings are paltry). We also want teachers to get in the habit of providing students with "past exam papers" to study, the norm in IBD programs, leaving families serious about scoring high to scrounge for prep materials on the Internet.  Not reasonable.

Please get a grip and a clue. Better yet, go away. IB Diploma for all is something of a joke.[/quote]
