I agree Chenchuan, that is why we are thinking about the big, top HS in a neighboring city, that offers IB as well as classes at the state flagship.
But I would like for him to know "other options", so to speak, so he can compare and make an educated decision. He is only in 7th grade right now, but if he makes a decision about going with an IB program, he will need to make that decision by the fall of next year.
I actually would like for Ghost to ask questions tonight, that is why I am brainstorming right now:-)
Then I will just give him a printout and voila...
