Welcome to IB ESS!
Please find below a copy of our curriculum, with links to the lessons we will be completing over the next two years.
I am here to share my passion for science and help you learn, so never hesitate to come talk to me and ask questions. The IB won't always be easy, but speaking as a graduate of the program myself, know that it will be rewarding. Let's begin!
Best,
Mr. Briner
