Seneca Academy is proud to be the first independent school in Montgomery County to partner with the prestigious International Baccalaureate program to offer globally focused, inquiry-based elementary education in a small, nurturing environment. The International Baccalaureate’s Primary Years Program (IB/PYP) combines research and experience from schools worldwide to create a relevant, engaging, challenging and significant educational framework for all children. Seneca Academy’s existing curriculum for Preschool through 6th grade fits perfectly into the IB/PYP framework. Within this partnership, Seneca Academy students are able to think deeply about critical and relevant issues; communicate effectively using a variety of verbal, non-verbal, artistic and technological media; and interact positively with peers and adults to acquire information, solve problems, and promote friendships. Seneca Academy is in its 27th year of providing exceptional education and is delighted to be aligning with the International Baccalaureate as we continue Turning Experience Into Knowledge.
