GRPS currently offers IB programming at City High Middle School. Currently, the Middle Year Programme (grade 7-10) and the Diploma Programme (grades 11-12) at City provides scholars with an internationally accepted qualification for entry into colleges and universities; promotes international understanding; educates scholars in a way that emphasizes intellectual, personal, emotional and social growth; and develops scholars’ inquiry and thinking skills to evaluate actions critically.
For more information on the IB Programme, please see the City High Middle School section of this guide. Final grades received for an IB Diploma Programme course (11th and 12th grade) are weighed at a factor of 1.25 in the GPA calculation. Scholars in the IB DP are expected to take the IB tests required for an IB endorsed diploma.
