Ed White Program Updates


Good Morning IB Commander Family!

Sorry for the delay in posts, its been pretty busy down in the Mod 2 Office.  I wanted to share some information about what has been and what will be coming up with the Ed White IB Program.  

Testing:

We are currently finishing up the last of the Internal Assessments for All Seniors and select Juniors.  We will be entering the exam period from May 4th - 19th, where are students will be completing their IB Exams that can help them earn college credit!  Scores will be available around July 4th and we will mail out IB Diplomas once they arrive.  Test Takers, make sure that Mr. Carter has your most accurate address so that the Certificates/Diplomas can be mailed out once they get to Ed White.

 CAS:  

Seniors should be finishing up their CAS Projects and Activities - a graduation requirement under Program of Study I.  The last day to complete CAS Work on Managebac will be May 20th - this will allow Mr. Carter to review before submission.  

Graduation Stoles:

IB Senior Graduation Stoles have been ordered  for all seniors and are $30.  Students can pay via check or cash.  All monies will be collected by Mr. Carter.  Monies not collected by May 12th will result in being added to the student's debt list with the bookkeeper.  Students will receive their IB Stoles at the End of the Year Banquet.

End of the Year Banquet:

Invitations were distributed through the student's English Classes this morning.  We are asking that all students and families that will be attending bring a covered dish.  The IB Boosters will be providing the main dish - fried chicken.  PLEASE RSVP BY MAY 12TH.  This can be done by contacting Mrs. Lynn Higginbotham via phone at (904) 693-9235 or returning the invitation to Mr. Carter on Campus.  We would like to have an accurate count so that we don't go home with any leftovers :-)

In addition to eating, we will also be recognizing our IB Learner Profile Award recipients, IB Students of the Year, and our Graduating Seniors of the Class of 2015. 

Looking forward to finishing the year strong!

Mr. Carter
IB Coordinator
