International Baccalaureate In SAISD, With Yareli Melendez

International Baccalaureate (IB) aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who will help create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. San Antonio ISD has a partnership with the Texas Council for International Studies to offer IB at seven SAISD Choice Schools, including Jefferson and Burbank High Schools, Fenwick and Woodlawn Academies, Harris Middle School, and Briscoe and Woodlawn Hills Elementary Schools. Yareli Melendez, Diploma Programme Coordinator at Thomas Jefferson High School, joins us to discuss the IB curriculum at her school and share how it is helping her students become more active, compassionate learners.
