Bishop Ludden-Grimes Offers the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program
Investing in a Bishop Ludden-Grimes education is investing in your future. This is true now more than ever as we are recognized as an International Baccalaureate World school! The IB Diploma is offered in addition to the traditional NYS Diploma and is held in very high regard by colleges and universities across the world. IB is recognized for its innovative approach to education, placing an equal focus on academics and other transferable skills, in order to best prepare students for success beyond high school.
“Bishop Ludden-Grimes is a great school all around. Because of the small class sizes, my teachers are able to work at a pace that’s best for my class. I can also try out new sports and clubs, because there isn’t as much competition or pressure as there is at other schools. The support system is great. We’re not just a group of students – we’re a family.”
"As an alum, parent, coach and Board member, I am excited to see that Bishop Ludden has taken the initiative to enhance their academic programs and provide students with numerous opportunities to flourish in and outside of the classroom."
-Thomas Royal, Class of 1982
"Bishop Ludden provides more than just a traditional classroom education. There's a sense of community, a dedication to helping others, and a deep commitment to integrity that's instilled in all Gaelic Knights - traits that have continued to serve me well both personally and professionally."
