Parent Association (the "WHS IBPA") is a volunteer parent
and alumni advisory, advocacy, fundraising and

School IB Diploma Program (the "WHS IBDP").
The WHS IBDP was established in 1996, graduating
its first students in 1998. Over the years, the WHS
IBDP has established itself as one of the finest open
enrollment public IB World Schools in Texas.
WHS IBDP graduates consistently score highly on

This is a parent-led session designed for middle school parents and students who are considering the IB Diploma Program for their high school academic path. We will try to provide a framework in which to consider IB, give an overview of IB and compare it to the other high school pathways (e.g., AP, dual credit, etc.), and give a high-level overview of the components of the IB Diploma Program at Westwood. We hope to respond to your questions and dispel certain myths that have grown over time through Q&A.
