Welcome back Scholars!

I can’t believe that the new school year is only one week and a half away…

This year’s orientation will be on Thursday August 18 at 10AM in the school cafeteria. Peer 2 Peer mentors must arrive no later than 8AM. For more information check out the agenda below. Looking forward to seeing everyone next week.

Dear all,

I can not believe that the commencement of school is only a week and a half away. However, the IB teachers have been planning a fantastic year ahead. We are proud that our pioneering class will be graduating this year, and that we have an amazing second group of students blazing their own trails. This message is also a reminder that Orientation for the IB Diploma Programme will be on Wednesday, August 17 at 10AM in the Media Center, please see the agenda below. Thank you.

Dear Students,

The 2011 Summer Reading List is a compilation of the English and Social Studies Departments’ summer reading lists and projects for all IB and Scholars students at all grade levels. Should you have any inquiries about the different assignments or recommended reading lists you may contact the course instructor via email, all email addresses are provided in the IB SUMMER READING LIST click here. IB students going into 12th grade are to complete their second draft of the Extended Essay and continue to work on their CAS projects over the summer.

It has been a fruitful year at Beach High and I hope you have fantastic summer full of fun and play sprinkled with some valuable school readings to prepare you for the academic challenges of 2011-2012.

Enjoy your summer,

Ms. Diaz
IB Coordinator
