What is the IB Middle Year Programme (MYP)?

The JCIB Middle Years Programme is comprised of grades 6-10 (MYP years 1-5). Each student will complete each of the eight subject groups in each year of the programme.

• Language and Literature
• Language Acquisition
• Mathematics
• Sciences
• Individual and Societies
• Design
• The Arts
• Physical Education

The MYP curriculum correlates with the Alabama College and Career Ready Standards (CCRS).
MYP enhances curriculum, fostering creativity for both students and teachers.

Culminating Requirements

The MYP students will have the opportunity to complete service projects to further develop skills they have learned through the MYP as it arises naturally in the curriculum.

At the end of the tenth-grade year (year 5), MYP students complete the MYP Personal Project that is a product of the student's own initiative and creativity.
