Marshall High School's International Baccalaureate (IB) co-coordinators Carlota Shewchuk and Asheesh Misra will be visiting pre-IB World History (9th grade) and Pre-IB English (10th grade) classes during the first and second weeks of January.
The purpose of these visits will be to help those 9th and 10th graders who intend to pursue the IB Diploma develop IB Diploma Plans.

Thursday, January 10 from 2:30 to 4 p.m. in the IB Center
and
Thursday, January 17 from 2:30 to 4 p.m. in the IB Center
If you are unable to attend either of those meetings and feel that you need to discuss your child's individual diploma plan, contact Ms. Shewchuk (class of 2010) or Mr. Misra (class of 2011).
