[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The issue is pretty obvious. If the program was amazing you would see all of the schools with tons of education oriented parents pushing for it because they would crap bricks if they felt their kids were missing out. So, yeah. I completely agree. It's sad that on top of all of the other crap the bottom performing schools deal with in Fairfax county, they have a second rate "honors" program like IB. And let's not forget the cost of these programs. It's terrible, a waste, and like I said, if it was so great, you would see Langley parents clamoring for it and you wouldn't have seen Woodson parents fighting against it.

x a million. It's more of a marketing program to sell poor performing schools to parents who might send their kids there if promised a "private school experience." Horrible, and a terrible waste of our tax dollars.[/quote]

No one is naive enough to think that an IB program at a poor performing school is like a private school experience. However, at a school like Marshall or Robinson, it is a high quality program with a strong cohort of students. [/quote]
