My son's HS has the IB now rather than the AP. Can you explain to me exactly what it is that I need to be concerned with? I am asking with sincerity.

From the Article :

The Advanced Placement courses have now been replaced with IB classes, which is short for the International Baccalaureate Organization, a part of UNESCO, United Nations. In this class, we were assigned numerous short stories to read, mostly about the myths of other countries, and some about their religions.

This class was intended to be a higher-level class, in which advanced students could “maximize” their learning capacity. Learning about the religions and cultures of other countries, and not names like Henry van Dyke, Washington Irving, O. Henry, or even Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, names which I never heard until I attended private school. These authors, among others such as Mark Twain and Emily Dickinson are purely American, and the basis for all literary writings in America to date.

Do you really want your son's cirricula designed by UN people who have no love of Western Civilization? Who value some forgotton pagan god over the living Christ who has changed human history for the better?
