Anthony Middle School is a candidate school* for the Middle Years Programme. This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. IB World Schools share a common philosophy—a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education—that we believe is important for our students.


* Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its three academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP) or the Diploma Programme (and in addition the IB Career-related Certificate). Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted.

Mission Statement

Anthony Middle School develops interactive, compassionate, and principled learners who strive for excellence, embrace differences and act responsibly within our communities and the world.
All Things Are Linked

 

Seventh grade science students completed an Earth Day MYP unit that addressed environmental issues. For a final project, students completed a photo essay that focused on one aspect of the environment.  Students took one photo and wrote an essay that answered how their topic is linked to other environmental issues.  Students also wrote how their actions now will impact the environment in the future.  For the following imovie, students submitted their photo and a shortened form of their essay.  They turned in amazing work!

 

I also worked on my own MYP Learner Profile of risk-taking.  I had no idea how to compile electronic work from 150 students and transform it into a form for the Anthony webpage.  A big THANK YOU to Brian Yang for all his patience and help with this project.

 

***Having said this, if a student’s work was accidently missed when creating this work, I do apologize.

WEEKLY NEWS


Dear Families and members of the Anthony Community,

 

We will be celebrating the upcoming 2012 Olympic Games with our own day of Olympics here at Anthony!  

 

The goals of the Ancient Greeks, the Modern Olympics, and Anthony's IB program have much in common.  The goal of ancient Greeks was to strive for perfection.  The original Olympic champions received olive wreaths, symbolizing the true reward of honor rather than material goods.  There was a one month "Sacred Truce" held during the time of the Ancient Olympic Games, calling for a cessation of all hostilities.  In modern Olympic Games there are three foundational values: Excellence, Respect, and Friendship.  Mirroring those values, the IB mission statement includes "To create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect."

 

Our own Olympic Event will be comprised of three components: Olympic Games, Olympic Service, and Olympic Arts and Culture.  An ongoing variety of games, athletic events, performances by Native Pride Dancers, and workshops by Duniya African Drum and Dance.

 

Please join us on Friday May 25th for The Anthony School Olympic Celebration!
