Hankey K-8 IB Candidacy

Do you know how unique Hankey’s K-8 Program is?

Carl Hankey’s K-8 IB Program is the only self funded Public K-8 International Baccalaureate in Orange County. It is also the only locally funded public program in the state. What that means is:

Carl Hankey families pay all of the financial costs of this program. CUSD has given its permission forHankey K-8 to pursue IB, but does not pay for any IB costs.

It costs our learning community over $40,000 a year to build and maintain this well respected international educational program. The cost breakdown for the program is:

$20,000 in yearly program fees for both schools. This gets us access to IB materials,access to staff development programs and pays for school site reviews
$9,000 for IB Conferences and teacher staff development
$3,000 Art Masters
$3,000 for the middle school technology curriculum
$10,000 for curriculum writers and grade/ dept. team coaching

Our major fundraiser for these funds is the IB Hawk Trot!
