The IBDP is a challenging program that focuses on developing well-rounded students with a strong foundation in academic subjects, critical thinking, communication skills, and global awareness. Educators at XLIS prepare students for success in higher education and in their future careers, and they are committed to providing our students with the best possible education and support to help them achieve their goals. We are proud to have an exceptional team of teachers who work tirelessly to guide our students through the IBDP program and help them achieve their full potential.
Once again, we would like to congratulate our IBDP Class of 2023 on their outstanding achievements and wish them all the best as they begin this exciting new chapter in their lives. This group of young men and young women recognize the spirit of humanity, share the responsibility of protecting the earth (and as stated in the mission of the International Baccalaureate) “help create a better and more peaceful world.” (IBO) The XLIS teachers feel proud to have contributed to the growth of these young people and look forward to seeing what they will accomplish in the world.
