Show-stopping, heart-throbbing, captivating, dazzling. None of these words have been used to describe Cary Wall, but her delusions of grandeur persist nevertheless.

Abstract

Using data from the High School Longitudinal Study (2009) from the National Center for Education Statistics, I performed a quantitative analysis of factors affecting program presence and student enrollment in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program in the US--primarily focusing on the demographic factors of race, SES, parental education attainment, school category (public vs private) and school urbanicity (rural vs urban). My analysis showed that, although IB has a strong presence in public and Title I schools across the US, there is still a level of inequity in the exclusion of minority students and students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds within the programs.
