IB MYP Project

International Baccalaureate

Bloomfield Hills Schools uses a teaching approach called the International Baccalaureate (IB) that is recognized worldwide. IB helps students become curious, knowledgeable, confident, and caring individuals. At BHS, IB is offered at all grade levels: Kindergarten to fifth grade (Primary Years), sixth to tenth grade (Middle Years), and grades 11 and 12 (Diploma Program). With the IB curriculum, students are encouraged to take charge of their learning and acquire skills that will help them succeed in a rapidly changing world.

Global Competency

Experiential Learning

Students thrive on experiential and active learning, which ignites their curiosity and engagement. At Bloomfield Hills, we embrace experiential learning through a range of approaches, such as classroom practices, interdisciplinary events, place-based experiences, both curricular and extra-curricular activities, and by leveraging community resources like Bowers Farm and the Johnson Nature Center.

Social Emotional Learning

We believe in the importance of Social Emotional Learning (SEL) as a proven method for student success. SEL is an evidence-based approach that empowers learners to develop healthy identities, manage their emotions, set and achieve goals, show empathy towards others, build supportive relationships, and make responsible decisions.
