State of the School 2010-2011

The State of the School 2010-2011 is a publication about Lamar High School—an International Baccalaureaate World School. It's about the academic and social life of Lamar High School's students. It is an ever-changing document that keeps current with the school and its changing demographics.

Every student, parent, and teacher at Lamar High School is a participant in the IB—it defines who we are, what we do, and who we want to be. From the moment a stakeholder steps foot onto this campus, they are a member of the IB family. As we like to say, we are not just a school with an IB Programme, we are an IB World School.

The IB experience is not just a way to learn, it’s a way of life, and the way to a better world.

The International Baccalaureate Programme promotes responsible global citizenship, provides intercultural awareness to all members of the school community, and focuses on academic excellence while stressing the importance of synthesizing knowledge gained both in and out of the classroom.

The relationship between IB World Schools, IB students, and IB Headquarters can be described as triangular, since each party assumes certain responsibilities toward the other two parties.
