FDR High School IB Requirements

The following requirements are for all students taking IB courses, whether Full Diploma or Single course certificates:

1. All students are expected to take the IB Exam for the course they are taking. Students must be registered at Roosevelt and attending school in order to take the IB exam.
   Only the principal can grant permission to any external student wishing to resit an IB exam. If such permission is granted, it is only to sit the exam and not to receive assistance from teachers or access to school resources.
2. IB students and their parents are expected to sign a two-year contract representing their commitment to the two-year IB program. At the end of the Junior year, if students leave the IB diploma or a particular IB certificate subject (s), they must change to another course. In this case, students cannot benefit from weighted grades with respect to their classes ranking and their transcript will no longer reflect that they were in an IB subject in their junior year.
3. IB seniors, who leave in December or say that they will not take the exam, will remain in the class but must still meet all the course requirements and will not benefit from either weighted grades or have IB mentioned on their transcripts (because they only take school exams).
