International Baccalaureate Dual Credit Options (IB)

Home → Programs → Dual Credit Options → International Baccalaureate Dual Credit Options (IB)

Interlake High School is an authorized International Baccalaureate (IB) World School. IB is a part of every student’s experience at Interlake through the approaches all staff use in teaching and the values we hold in common in learning. These values are represented via the IB Learner Profile.

The IB Diploma Program is recognized as one of the most academically rigorous college preparatory programs in the world. This highly respected, two-year curriculum focuses on classical liberal arts and sciences. Founded in the 1960’s to serve international students, IB programs across K-12 education are now available in over 3500 schools around the world. Interlake High School is proud to offer the challenging IB Diploma Program as an end of high school experience designed to prepare students for a wide variety of life options, especially success at university.

Interlake students pursue IB Diploma by taking classes in six subject areas and completing assessments in each of those six subjects, over two years. The students also complete core requirements in Theory of Knowledge (ToK); Extended Essay (EE); and Creativity, Activity, and Service (CAS). The assessments include work completed over time as part of class (for example, essays, oral presentations, lab reports, portfolios, projects etc.) as well as sit-down exams in May.
The IB Diploma Program is open to all interested Interlake students. Individual success is largely determined by academic motivation and active participation.
