Students attending Denton High on an IB transfer are required to enroll in at least:

• 2 Honors or AP classes in both 9th AND 10th grade years, AND

• 2 IB Diploma Classes in both 11th AND 12th grade years, and complete ALL IB assessments, on time with integrity.

Transfer students must maintain progress toward graduation and maintain an acceptable attendance and behavior record.  DHS administration can revoke an IB transfer is a student does not maintain these requirements. 

*The IB Diploma is rigorous advanced academic course work for which we believe all students have the capacity. While all students can be successful in IB DP courses, we want to make sure our transfer students, who are coming to DHS to for the IB Programme, are prepared for that work. Therefore, students are strongly encouraged to take Honors English in 9th and 10th grade to ensure they have the writing and rigor experience to be successful in the required IB diploma classes in 11th and 12th grade.
