This Iracki guy must be a Rove Plant. How else do you explain that Oliver is now crying for "School Choice"?!? I guess it's time for vouchers so these poor Pittsburgh kids can escape the oppresive regime of their local public school. Oh, and the strongest argument I would have against IB is if it's not as effective as other programs. However, Oliver's link does no such thing, only that one school system has seen success with it (good for them!), nothing about the overal effectiveness of the program and how it compares with AP.

Maybe it is just me, but I have never heard of it before and we certainly didn't have it when I was in high school. Is this a national program or limited to the Pittsburgh area?
