[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would also really like schools to phase out IB over three years. Let the sophomores, juniors, and seniors finish the diploma. The freshman and everyone else can do AP.[/quote] FCPS needs to pile a list of grades and test scores for the students using the IB loophole to transfer out of undercapacity low performing IB schools such as Lewis, then calculate whatever the school scores and ratings would be if the district put AP at every school and eliminated the IB loophole. Then do the same with the grades and scores of the kids who transfer away from the middle schools like Key with no AP program. I strongly suspect if they pulled the actual grades and test scores of the kids using AAP and IB to escape from key and Lewis and added them into the current scores and grades for those schools, FCPS would discover quite definitively that the scores and ratings for schools like Key and Lewis would significantly improve if FCPS got rid of IB and added AAP to every middle school, perhaps putting them on par with schools like Hayfield or South County.[/quote]
