Academic ExcellenceMillbrook's Diploma Programme is made up of students who seek academic opportunity and use that opportunity for personal growth.

The IB CommunityAsk 100 IB Diploma Programme students the most valuable part of the programme for them and 98 will tell you it is the DP community. The DP community provides students with a social network of motivated students who recognize the academic challenges they are all addressing, and who provide academic and emotional support for their peers during their DP experience.

College RecognitionWhen students apply to colleges during their senior year, one of the most important parts of that application will be the student's transcript reflecting the level of rigor they engaged during their time at Millbrook. The Diploma Programme is recognized across NC, the US and the world as the premier college prep opportunity.

Equity, Access and InclusionIn the early spring of 2017, Alexis Stone, Spencer Maingi and Victor Linzau, three of our Diploma Programme seniors, raised questions regarding the relative lack of diversity in Millbrook's IB Diploma Programme. Not long after, these three students, in conjunction with Millbrook's DP coordinator and DP counselor, founded the programme's Equity and Access Committee. Their work continues today.

Research and WritingsThere is much research conducted by the IBO, measuring the effectiveness of the Diploma Programme on students' preparation for college, their academic interest, their research readiness and more. In addition, there is writing by other sources regarding the value of the Diploma Programme and its core elements of CAS, the EE and TOK.
