Bhaktivedanta Academy Has Officially Become a Candidate IB World School

I am happy to report that we have been notified by International Baccalaureate that Bhaktivedanta Academy is now officially a candidate school for the Middle Years Programme. This is the first major step in our eventual authorization (accreditation) of the Krishna Sharanam 7th-10th grade program and is a notable event in our school's history.

We still have a long way to go and many things to accomplish but we are well on our way to becoming authorized as an IB World School!

Many thanks to Jaya Sri Radhe, our IB Coordinator, for tirelessly charging forward with the Krishna Sharanam program development and getting us to this point.
