[quote=Anonymous]Nobody can know for sure what FCPS a will do down the road, and they may pull IB from some schools. Maybe it would even be a good thing to concentrate it in 2 or 3 schools. But FCPS does have a good track record of grandfathering kids in existing programs (see AAP changes, boundary changes, grade changes to the +/- system). If a kid starts into an IB high school program and the program is pulled while they are a student, it would be phased out, so that the kids who started the program could finish it, (or, less likely) they could transfer with their peers to finish. They'd just stop offering it to incoming classes. They wouldn't tell a high performing, full diploma candidate junior-- sorry, your high school coursework is useless for college admissions purposes. So, if a child starts IB, I don't think they need to worry about being unable to finish it. [/quote]
