IB Mission Statement<\/h2>\n

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.<\/p>\n

To this end, the organization works with schools, governments, and international organizations to develop challenging programs of international education and rigorous assessment.<\/p>\n

These programs encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate, and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.<\/p>\n

Learner Profile<\/h2>\n

The IB Learner Profile<\/a> lays out the skills and competencies it seeks to instill in our students. The learner profile helps to guide teachers in the development of their courses and prompts our students to think more broadly about themselves instead of just about pure coursework.<\/p>\n

As IB learners, we strive to be: Inquirers, Knowledgeable, Thinkers, Communicators, Principled, Open-Minded, Caring, Risk-Takers, Balanced, and Reflective.<\/p>\n

IB Policies<\/h2>\n

Gilbert Stuart School students follow these IB policies.<\/p>\n
