November 2026: Education Matters – Elmore County Schools
We are proud to announce we have six schools in the candidacy phase of our International Baccalaureate (IB) program: Coosada Elementary, Airport Road Intermediate, Millbrook Middle, Wetumpka Elementary, Wetumpka Middle, and The EDGE! Limited openings will be available at each school, and applications will be available in January. Students from both inside and outside Elmore County may apply. Students who live outside the county will be required to pay tuition. Students participating in IB will receive instruction in all four core academic areas along with PE, fine arts, and language acquisition. Our goal is to develop students who are globally minded, thoughtful learners, and responsible custodians of our planet. The EDGE is also in the candidacy phase for the IB Career-related Programme (CP), a unique framework that combines academic rigor with a career-related study of the student’s choosing. The program will begin in the 2027-28 school year.
