We Are IB! - Learner Profile Student of the Month | Balanced

The International Baccalaureate (IB) approach applies ten characteristics to describe an IB learner. As an IB-MYP School, Deal students and teachers/staff strive to demonstrate the attributes of Inquirer, Thinker, Caring, Balanced, Knowledgeable, Open Minded, Risk taker, Communicator, Reflective and Principled. 

The IB Learner Profile also demonstrates how the IB approach is about much more than academic success. Each month at Deal one characteristic is highlighted. For the month of March we are focusing on Balanced. 

Balanced learners understand the importance of intellectual, physical, and emotional balance to achieve personal well-being for themselves and others. They are able to assess and understand their strengths and limitations in order to support their learning and personal development.

Team teachers will highlight two "balanced" students for this month's Students of the Month.  Students of the Month should stop by Principal Neal's office at the beginning of lunch on Friday, March 31 for a special treat!
