[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TJ actually requires as many extra classes, including in foreign language, as IB. It's a very similar and enhanced diploma over AP offerings. In fact every core academic class class at TJ is Honors, AP, or POST-AP. DC is starting 9th there next year and every incoming freshman needs to take AP Statistics the first semester (and get at least an unweighted B average). It's not an AP choice, it's mandatory. So you really can't compare TJ to any other school, nor can you claim it is a rejection of IB. It's a lot like IB as far as extra work goes. [/quote] TJ is not an IB school and students there do take many AP courses. It is not anything like IB. The families who send their kids to TJ also overwhelmingly live in AP school districts. If the kids don't get into TJ, the parents want them in AP schools. Not a single middle school that sends a large number of kids to TJ has the IB MYP.[/quote]
