Admission to the IB Program is handled differently depending upon when students apply.

One way we could explain our admissions criteria would be to describe a typical IB Student.

We look for a bright, motivated student with a dedication to academics. However, we also want a well-rounded individual. Interests outside of school are important, along with a strong desire to be involved in community events.
 
In addition to this, incoming 9th graders must have successfully completed the first year of a foreign language and Algebra 1.

In-School Application Process

We accept applications at any time. Contact Ms. Bocock in room 170 to receive an application or schedule an appointment with the Guidance Office. Several Information Nights and Open House events are scheduled throughout the year. Check the calendar to see the scheduled events. We welcome everyone who comes!
