IB Program
WELCOME: Introduction to the IB Program at Tualatin High School - and this site
Thank you for your interest in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program at Tualatin High School. The IB Diploma is the premier global standard of high school academic excellence, and Tualatin is proud to have offered students the option to earn it ever since our doors opened in 1992.Students and parents frequently have questions about the IB program and how it works at our school. In order to help answer such questions and provide better guidance for those who are considering the program, we have created this web site. It is designed to meet the needs of several different user groups. Students or parents who are new to IB might want to check out the "FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)" section to learn more. Current Diploma candidates at TuHS and their parents can find up-to-date information about upcoming IB events, student deadlines, exam dates and times, exam fees, and more. We hope you will find this site informational and helpful. Current students should check back for additional news & notes on the Home page as they become available. Thank you.
