Mission statement
The International Baccalaureate aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. To this end the organization works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programmes of international education and rigorous assessment. These programmes encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.

Welcome back. I have already seen some students regarding US applications. Please refer to the University Planning section of the website for information regarding the application process. There is a powerpoint from our University Night as well. Please advise me by email if you are planning to apply to the US or the UK because I will need to prepare special scanned IB transcripts for you.
Best wishes for an excellent year,
Mrs. Porpaczy
