Special Programs
International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme
The Program
Middle Years Programme (MYP) is designed to teach students to
become independent learners who can discover the relationships
between school subjects and the world. The MYP emphasizes the
study of traditional subject groups: English (Language A), French or
Spanish (Language B), humanities, sciences, mathematics, arts,
technology, and physical education. The 5 Areas of Interaction provide
a unique curriculum framework: approaches to learning, community &
service, human ingenuity, environments, and health & social education.
Emphasis is on written and oral communication, acquisition of a
second language, as well as an international perspective.
