result in college credit.
**IB
means classes in the International Baccalaureate program. IB is a
worldwide organization that designs academically challenging education
programs for students. Students can take a full IB curriculum leading to
an IB diploma in addition to a high-school diploma, or select individual
IB courses. IB diplomas are highly regarded by top colleges and
universities.
Each academy provides the same core
courses in math, English, science and social studies, as well
as art, health and Spanish 1. Physical education, band,
orchestra and chorus include students from all four academies. Each
academy also provides honors, special-education classes and

other elective courses are grouped according to each academy’s
unique theme.
Students can take electives in different
academies and the electives are equally available to all.
