The International Baccalaureate is an academically vigorous program for students in preschool through grade 12. The IB teaches students to think critically, creatively, ethically, and globally; and to become lifelong learners. Recognized worldwide as one of the most challenging academic programs — the “gold standard” in pre-university preparation — the IB provides the ideal academic framework for educating internationally minded problem-solvers — culturally agile, bilingual, and even trilingual — positioning them for success in today’s global marketplace. No other curriculum fits better with Dwight’s vision of educating the next generation of global leaders.  Dwight Global students may take International Baccalaureate Diploma classes starting in Grade 11.
 

Established in 1955, CollegeBoard develops and maintains guidelines for the teaching of higher-level courses in various subject areas. Courses following these guidelines are designated "Advanced Placement (AP)," and students in these courses can take AP examinations to document their level of preparation for future study in college. Unlike the IB, which has a specific philosophical and pedagogical underpinning, the Advanced Placement allows a multitude of approaches and uses in schools. The goal of Advanced Placement is to provide a benchmark readily understood by universities. Dwight Global offers students a full complement of standard AP courses.
 

Students may also choose from over 100 standard and honors college-preparatory classes.  Students work with their Deans and College Counselors to personalize their course of study, meet grade-level requirements, and best prepare themselves for the college application process.
