Editor's Notes
- Present mini biographies Focus on our diversity and experience Professional organization: ASCA, NACAC, IACAC...
- Caseloads divided equally. Not just reactive. We have a curriculum in place. Three main aspects to our role. We have a robust college visit program. We connect with college admissions professionals at conferences and thru EARCOS, CIS, NACAC and OACAC.
- As our three-fold role implies, we try to help students find a balance between work, rest and play. We are helping students navigate high school but we are also helping them with the transition from childhood to adulthood. There are times when we need to offer students strong guidance but generally our role is to facilitate All of this is done with at least one eye on the future as we seek to find the best fit for students after high school.
- homeroom sessions, individual meetings, teachers
- The full IB is not a must to get into university or around the world
- We also recognize that it’s not for everyone. For students who will be studying in the USA, the high school diploma is also an option. For the HS diploma, students work towards satisfying the ISM graduation requirements. This will mean taking a combination of IB certificate courses and school based courses. Talk about course selection in February of Sophomore year. Students who do not take the diploma, typically fall in to one of 3 categories: too academically demanding; have a particular weakness in one particular subject; do not want to be limited to the group structure. 5. After you meet the graduation requirements you are taking electives 6. Electives are choice based
- 6 electives - ( 3 robotics 3 design and photography Small group meeting with your sons and daughters in janurary
- Math HL is a hard one to get into if not in second semester math honors during sophomore year
- physics chem bio are prep for HL
- 10, 11, 12 If you are doing the full IB it is not neccessary to do the AP couress at anytime during your high school career Historically there has been a requirement of 6 or better in Geography
- High Level is more depth and breath about 90 more hours of insturction
