Start a world language (Spanish or French)* during Middle School studies
Sign and submit the VHS IB Statement of Intent to the campus IBDP Coordinator
Plan to enroll in advanced English and at least 2 other advanced courses in 9th and 10th grade to prepare for upper-level IB coursework
Work together with the IB Coordinator to create a four-year plan and revisit it annually
***Please see DP Coordinator to discuss alternate Mandarin options for the language component**
