[edit] False Information

I'm an IA student and, while I think it's good that IA students are editing it as we have a better clue than anyone else, I've noticed stuff in the past that were just rumors flying around the IA. For example, the whole thing about Baker Middle School in Troy becoming a new location for IA...that was a rumor that came out of the fact that the Troy School District is planning on using Baker to turn into a new IB school. However, it is was never in consideration to be used as a new building for the current IA. The IA is funded by the Bloomfield Hills District, so it would never relocate to a building in Troy.

The classes offered portion I added on my "BeggarsBanquet" account and while that has no citations I know for a fact that all of that is true. I've read in the school coursebook and/or heard it from teachers and principals of the school myself. I simply just would not know what to cite.

The article seems pretty good right now, but we should be on the lookout for stuff that is untrue or is outdated...for example, the "IA Fire" disbanded in the fall of 2005. That was over a year ago.
