Biography

West Sound Academy is an International Baccalaureate World School that offers a college preparatory curriculum for grades 6 through 12. Its approach to education uses inquiry to develop critical thinking, effectively integrates academics and arts, enhances curiosity, and goes beyond each discipline’s typical boundaries to study the philosophical and ethical aspects of content. Small classes are an important component supporting this approach. With academics comes an exposure to multiple disciplines in the arts, including drama, dance, music, and visual art. Located in Poulsbo, Washington on the Kitsap Peninsula and only 2 miles from Bainbridge Island, Seattle is just a short ferry ride away!
