Mission: Our mission at Jefferson is to have “internationally-minded learners inquire, collaborate, and take action.” The IB Primary Years Programme is a rigorous program that strives for all students to be: inquirers, knowledgeable, thinkers, communicators, principled, open-minded, caring, risk-takers, balanced, and reflective. In addition, the IB focuses on a transdisciplinary approach, connecting all content areas together, and understanding how they work in local and global contexts.
