Nease International Baccalaureate Students actively balance a demanding academic program with service, athletic, leadership and social activities, and are recognized for their energy and enthusiasm. The Nease IB Program was established in 1996 and is recognized as one of the most successful programs in the state, with 829 Nease IB graduates in 15 years.
The International Baccalaureate Diploma Program is a two-year program of curriculum and service that meets the needs of highly motivated secondary students. The Diploma Program offers a comprehensive and integrated approach to learning. The primary objective of an IB program is to provide a world-class education that prepares students with the intellectual, social, and critical perspectives necessary for college and the rest of their lives. The rigorous curriculum, the original research requirement, the Theory of Knowledge course, and the service component are designed to produce well-rounded and well-educated citizens who can read and think critically, write persuasively, speak articulately, and manage challenging schedules.
What is Nease Pre-IB?
Nease Pre-IB instruction consists of intensified courses in Grades 9 and 10 in English, Spanish or French, social studies, science, and mathematics in preparation for the rigorous college-level curriculum of the Grade 11-12 IB Diploma Program.
How will the IB Program benefit my student?
The IB Program provides a strong writing emphasis, develops critical thinking skills, promotes sound ethical thought, seeks international understanding, and instills commitment to community service. It realizes that memorizing facts and formulas isn’t enough to help your child succeed in life. Colleges recognize the IB Diploma as a superior education, preparing students to succeed at post-secondary institutions. Beyond college, the IB program prepares students for life in a globalized 21st century, encouraging them to become active, compassionate, lifelong learners.
