Middle School, here we come.....
After eight years at Zachary Lane Elementary School (including two years of preschool), Kallie and Matthew will be moving on to Middle School in the Fall of 2007. They were accepted in two different accelerated programs at two different Middle Schools and have decided to attend the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program (IBMYP) at Sandburg Middle School in Golden Valley.
This program is only available in 18 Middle Schools within the United States and this is the only Middle School in Minnesota offering this program. Harvard University's Graduate School of Education recently announced the start of a study of IBMYP programs and chose four Middle Schools world-wide to visit and observe. Out of roughly 2,000 IBMYP programs in over 120 countries, researchers chose Sandburg Middle School along with three other schools located in Uganda, Portugal, and Hong Kong.
Over 500 kids applied for this program that accomodates about 120 kids per year. Kallie and Matthew were both accepted.
Way to go!!!!!
