The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme at Carson Graham Secondary You are invited to register

The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme at Carson Graham Secondary You are invited to register now! l At Carson Graham Secondary, we are proud to offer the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. The IB DP is an internationally recognized, university preparatory programme that is widely acknowledged as the most prestigious high school diploma available to high school students. The IB DP curriculum is rigorous; it requires that students complete a two-year programme that consists of the study of language and literature, individuals and society, the experimental sciences, mathematics and the arts. In addition to its academic demands, students are expected to gain a breadth of knowledge, ideas and experiences as they complete core requirements in Theory of Knowledge (TOK), Creativity Action Service (CAS) and the Extended Essay (EE). l Current Grade 10 students are invited to apply for the upcoming academic year. If selected for programme entry, students will benefit from both the holistic and challenging curriculum and the opportunity to earn university transfer credits. l For questions about the IB DP at Carson Graham Secondary, please contact Ms. Kristy Dolha, IB Diploma Programme Coordinator, at 604. 903. 3555 or kdolha@sd 44. ca.
