| Here's another wrinkle. In my school system the IB program is in one high school, and students from around my city can apply to go to it. (And no, it isn't an inner-city school.)
IB'rs are figured in with the regular school population for class rank (IB courses are weighted.) Is that fair to the non-IB'rs who happen to be zoned for the high school that gets the IBr's bused in from around the city? NO. It's also not fair because the IBr's take over leadership positions because they are always doing this that and the other thing for their CAS hours. |
