Acceptance into South's honors program is automatic and open to any student willing to take on a challenge and advance their skills in preparation for an IB Education. Thus, the application is a declaration of intent that will be used to ensure that student choices and actions keep the opportunity of a full IB Diploma an option.
Parents, please review the commitments contained in the declaration your student completes.
Accepted students must enroll in the following as a freshman:
a World Language: Spanish, German, or French
Engage in the honors options for core classes: English, History, and Science
To be eligible for the full IB Diploma, students should enroll in a math level beyond Algebra I in 9th grade. For freshman who are recommended for Algebra I, we advise that they take Accelerated Algebra/Geometry instead to stay on track for IB Math Applications.
