An International Baccalaureate Programme School

In June, 2023, Fremont International Academy officially earned its designation as an International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme school. 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). For further information about the IB and the Primary Years Programme, visit www.ibo.org.

What is IB?

The IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) nurtures and develops young students as caring, active participants in a lifelong journey of learning. IB Schools enable students to direct their own learning pathways and develop the skills and confidence they need to thrive and make a lasting difference in their community and the world.

At Fremont, we foster globally-minded critical thinkers
