Abstract
This article suggests the International Baccalaureate Program (IB) as an alternative secondary program for gifted youth. After tracing the history of the IB Program from its inception in Europe in the early fifties to its establishment in North America, comparing the IB program to other programs such as the Advanced Placement program, and outlining the IB curriculum and requirements, the article shows how the IB Program appropriately meets the needs of academically gifted secondary students.
