In March of 2021, North Woods International became an authorized International Baccalaureate World School. This great accomplishment took three years to achieve. North Woods at this time is the only IB World School on the western side of Wisconsin. Special thanks to our prior Principal, Mrs. Brauer for pursuing IB and starting this program! Another thanks to Trust Point for their support of our IB mission, and finally, a thank you to all the teachers for their continuous effort and collaboration to make this dream a reality.

North Woods International School is a Candidate School* for the Primary Years Programme. This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. These are schools that share a common philosophy—a commitment to high quality, challenging, international education that North Woods International School believes is important for our students.

*Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme, or the Career-related Programme (CP). Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted. For further information about the IB and its programmes, visit http://www.ibo.org.
