[quote=Anonymous]I have two kids at DCI - MS and HS. DCI is not dropping IB and that post is absolutely erroneous. My high school student is in IB classes this year as a senior and has had a rigorous math program through differential calculus in AA HL math. They thrive in their IB HL classes and the rigor is exceptional especially in math and science. My student has also been given the chance to take AP exams as a junior for courses where they demonstrated strong academic preparation through the IB program. What that allowed my student to do is to pass AP courses in their junior year to use for college admissions and college credits. My student entered senior year already knowing that there were at least two AP courses that they earned a 4 or 5 in that would translate to potential college credits. This is not "getting rid of IB"  this is expanding opportunities for students who want them. My middle school student (8th grade) is in the MYP program and working through their project this spring. Going to the HS night for rising freshman further stressed the IB program of the school.  IB is a foundational core of the school and these posts are nothing but "FAKE NEWS" to get this blog excited. Please stop posting things that are not rooted in facts. Every school has areas of growth- but this is just erroneous information to rally a blog community,[/quote]
