International Baccalaureate (IB)

At IPS, our International Baccalaureate (IB) schools emphasize inquiry, collaborative learning, critical thinking, and student agency. These educational models seek to develop socially responsible contributors who recognize their shared humanity and guardianship of the planet and strive to create a more peaceful world. All IPS Center for Inquiry (CFI) schools also follow the International Baccalaureate organization model.

IB Primary Years Programming (PYP) Students will go through six units of study based on global themes that incorporate math, science, social studies, reading, writing, and the arts through transdisciplinary teaching, where students apply knowledge and skills from multiple disciplines to help shape the learning experience.
