Here are some useful websites to get you started: • www.ibo.org/diploma • www.ibmidatlantic.org • international.collegeboard.org/ programs/ap-recognition Note that schools in the Washing- ton, D.C., area are familiar with Foreign Service students and work hard to provide the continuity needed while families are evacuated. If you plan to enroll your children in a specific public school in the D.C./Maryland/Virginia area, the Family Liaison Office recommends selecting a residence with school boundary details in mind. FLO can provide a temporary hous- ing list that indicates what schools are possible for attendance at each location.
