The International Baccalaureate (IB) develops lifelong learners who thrive and make a difference.

What does IB mean at OWN1 MS?

Our Middle Years Programme (MYP) provides a supportive and challenging learning environment that reflects our mission to develop lifelong learners, critical thinkers, and global citizens. Students build essential skills through our Approaches to Learning (ATL) class, where they learn about organization, collaboration,research, communication and have many  opportunities to develop social skills. 
The MYP emphasizes interdisciplinary learning, helping students see how everything they learn connects across subjects and understand the real‑world relevance of their studies. Classrooms are student‑centered, with hands-on projects, small‑group work, and inquiry‑based lessons. As students grow, they apply their learning through meaningful community‑focused projects that encourage leadership and responsibility.
