What qualifies a student for the IBDP?
Students can sign a letter of intent to participate in the pre-IB/honors program as a freshman if they are recommended for honors level English, science, history, and foreign language. Students must have been enrolled in Spanish I or French I (for credit) for the 8th grade year. Students will apply for the IBDP at the end of first semester of their sophomore year. At this time, a committee will evaluate each student’s progress in developing study skills, performance in course work, attitude and responsibility demonstrated while at Franklin High School and make the final selection of IB candidates. The letter of intent is neither an application nor an acceptance into the IBDP. It does not obligate either the student to apply for admittance into the IBDP nor does it obligate Franklin High School to accept the student into the IBDP.
