Up to Three Diplomas & Four Languages

Students may earn up to three diplomas: the Brazilian High School Diploma, the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma, and an internationally recognized High School Diploma accredited by NEASC.

 

As of Grade 6, students are immersed in the third language - Spanish - and leave our School fluent in three languages. Students may also enroll in one of our After School activities and also learn French.

Nations as an
IB World School

School of the Nations is an authorized IB World School for the Diploma Programme (DP) and is an official Candidate School* for the Primary Years Programme (PYP). These are schools that share a common philosophy—a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education that the School of the Nations believes is important for our students. In October 2024, we will undertake a crucial phase in our pursuit of full authorization for the Primary Years Programme (PYP) as we prepare for the PYP Verification Visit.

*Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme, or the Career-related Programme (CP).  Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted. For further information about the IB and its programmes, visit www.ibo.org.
