We offer the full continuum of the International Baccalaureate — aiming to develop high school students who have an excellent breadth and depth of knowledge and who flourish physically, intellectually, emotionally, and ethically.
The IB Diploma Programme is internationally recognized as representing one of the highest standards in university preparatory education. It is known to be both broad and deep in content and intellectual challenge. And, since our rigorous bilingual education forms the heart of Silicon Valley International School, we offer a choice between a dual-language (Chinese, French, or German) or English with Language Acquisition in high school.
Hammurabi High School offers opportunities for students who are already fluent in a second language as well as for those who would like to learn a new language. While most high school classes are instructed in English, students who are fluent in Chinese, French, or German can continue their language studies and graduate with a bilingual IB Diploma. Students who are new to the high school program have the possibility to take entry-level language acquisition classes in Chinese, French, German, or Spanish.
IB students have a deep understanding of various cultures and views, bringing an appreciation of new views to both their academic study and their involvement in local and wider communities.
