George School is an experienced leader in education, offering the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme for more than thirty-five years and boasting a diploma success rate in the mid-ninetieth percentile over the past ten years. In addition to the IB Diploma, George School offers nearly 20 Advanced Placement (AP) courses.
