International Baccalaureate (IB)

What is the International Baccalaureate (IB)? 

The International Baccalaureate (IB) is a rigorous educational framework dedicated to developing students who have the intellectual, personal, emotional, and social skills needed to live, learn, and work effectively in a global world.

At Temple High School, we offer the IB Diploma Programme (DP), a comprehensive, two-year curriculum specifically designed for motivated, college-bound juniors and seniors. This program provides an internationally recognized standard of education that emphasizes critical thinking and global engagement.

 

Key Benefits

Students who successfully complete this challenging two-year program are well-prepared for higher education. The DP offers the potential to earn significant benefits, including:

  • College and university credit for successfully completed exams.

  • The prestigious IB Diploma, recognized globally by leading universities.

Some IB courses may be taught concurrently with Advanced Placement (AP) courses. Learn more about the specific structure and benefits of the IB Diploma Programme by exploring the links below!
