As an Academies of Louisville school, Atherton also offers students exciting opportunities for career-centered, hands-on learning; real-world work experiences through internships and job opportunities; development of critical 21st-century job and life skills; and community involvement. Atherton offers the International Baccalaureate (IB) Program, which aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable, and caring young people who help create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect. The IB Program aspires to help schools develop well-rounded students, who respond to challenges with optimism and an open mind, are confident in their own identities, make ethical decisions, join with others in celebrating our common humanity, and are prepared to apply what they learn in real-world, complex, and unpredictable situations. School Highlights: Students have required units within the core content areas with opportunities in the Honors Program, Advance Program, and IB Program. Atherton High School is an IB World School. Atherton is the only JCPS District high school to offer IB. There are only four IB schools in Kentucky. Pre-IB courses in grades nine and ten prepare students for the program. Unlike Advanced Placement (AP), IB allows only students who have completed its curriculum to take the IB examinations. Colleges and universities recognize the value of the IB Diploma and the academic depth, breadth, and rigor it represents.
