EUGENE
INTERNATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL OVERVIEW
Established in 1984, Eugene International High School (Eugene IHS) is an alternative
school in international studies for grades nine through twelve. The program
is designed for students who value global understanding, communication, and
cultural differences and are interested in improving the human condition. Eugene
IHS is a four-year interdisciplinary curriculum focused on the study of nations,
their cultures, history, artistic expression, and political, economic, and belief
systems. Students who graduate from Eugene IHS will have developed a cultural
awareness necessary for international communication and understanding.
Located at four sites in District 4J on the campuses of South
Eugene High School, Sheldon High School,
Churchill High School, and North
Eugene High School (2007 senior class only), Eugene IHS offers students
a core program in international studies during half their school day. During
the other half, Eugene IHS students can select from an array of courses offered
in the host schools in the sciences, mathematics, languages, publications, applied
technology, and fine and performing arts. Students with advanced language skills
in Spanish or French have the opportunity to participate in language immersion
courses in Eugene IHS.
The organizational structure of Eugene IHS is a school-within-a-school model.
Eugene IHS shares the facilities and resources of the host high school. This
model not only provides an opportunity for students to specialize in international
studies and to benefit from the excellent offerings in the host schools, but
also serves as a catalyst to increase the international dimension of the regular
school program.
Eugene IHS is a member of the International Baccalaureate Program, a worldwide
affiliation of schools that promotes international standards of achievement.
All the course work for Eugene IHS juniors and seniors meets the requirements
for the IB. Eugene IHS students may choose to pursue the full IB diploma with
examinations in six subjects or to earn certificates in any of twelve areas
of study. The IB diploma and the certificates can earn students college credit
in universities and colleges all over the world.
