ABOUT OCEAN AVE

Ocean Avenue Elementary School is proud to be Maine's first International Baccalaureate IB WORLD SCHOOL offering the Primary Years Program (IB PYP).

We are working with full commitment to build the program into the fabric of the curriculum school-wide with the six concept-based transdisciplinary Units of Inquiry at each grade level. In addition, we are exploring and practicing \"internationally-minded\" character traits across the school community with the IB Learner Profile and IB attitudes. We were authorized as an IB World School offering the PYP in July 2016.
