Founded in the 1960’s, The International Baccalaureate Organization grew out of international school efforts to establish a common curriculum and university entry credential. It is a chartered foundation under the Swiss civil code with headquarters in Geneva.

Capistrano Valley High School is an approved International Baccalaureate (IB) school able to prepare students for the IB Diploma. IB is an internationally recognized college-preparatory program which offers a broad curriculum complemented by an opportunity to study a subject in depth.

We encourage all students planning on attending college to become involved in this program. Seniors in the 2007-2008 school year will be the first full diploma graduates. For more information, email our IB coordinator, Mr. Redding
