Description

The International Baccalaureate (IB) Programmes aim to assist schools in developing the unique talents and abilities of all students by teaching them to connect the experiences of the classroom to their world. The IB Programmes emphasize academic challenges, international understanding, community service and mental and physical well-being. At each level the curriculum framework is appropriate to the needs, abilities, and age of the students. The IB educational philosophy embraces the best methods, strategies, and techniques to enable all student to meet their potential.

The Middle Years Programme (MYP) includes students in grades six through ten. MYP is about developing the potential of students to think and act as members of a global society. The MYP programme incorporates five areas of interaction into the core courses taught. These five areas are approaches to learning, community service, health and social education, environment, and homo faber (man the maker). Included in the course of study are a foreign language, arts, and technology, as well as English, Social Studies, Science, Mathematics, and Physical Education. During the fifth year (tenth grade) of the MYP, students complete a personal project, which demonstrates initiative, organization and creativity. As creative thinkers and problem solvers, they will be successful at all future challenges. A holistic, thematic view of knowledge helps students understand how the school curriculum applies to their eveyday lives. A strong emphasis on community helps inwardly focused young adolescents gain an awareness of needs in the local community and leads them to action.

East Garner Magnet Middle is in the second year of implementing the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program.
