[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids can love school without being pushed to excel, or taught very well. I had a blast in a small town HS, where I earned good grades and high SATs. I went on to an Ivy, where I wound up on academic probation in my first year due to poor preparation. The experience was akin to starting a mile-long race a lap behind the opposition. Sure, Latin's a happy school, and so is Banneker, but parents and students need to supplement pretty aggressively DCPS-wide if they're aiming high. Get your student to watch those Khan Academy videos, folks. [/quote] This is really good, honest advice. That's the benefit to a solid curriculum like the IB program. You will be well prepared if you get an IB diploma. [/quote]
