[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is a really terrible decision for a school that has so many military kids.

Doesn't fcps have a military liason?  Someone needs to get them involved.

IB is useless for military kids.

Which school board member is in cahoots witn the company that owns the IB program?[/quote]

Not true. A lot of military kids are already accustomed to IB if they’ve been to international schools overseas. [/quote]

What percentage of military kids do you think are attending international schools abroad? The percentage of deployed abroad hovers around 15%. The percentage deployed abroad whose families accompany them are far lower. It's much more common to be stationed at a base in the US and then have a unit deploy from that base with the family remaining [/quote]

You’re confusing deployed with posted overseas. Plenty of families move overseas with their service member.  My kids went to international schools abroad and they now go to Robinson, as have several of their friends.[/quote]
