Mount Ogden Junior High School and Ogden School District are celebrating a prestigious honor earned by our students and teachers.
We are thrilled to announce that Mount Ogden Junior High School has officially been authorized as an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, offering the prestigious Middle Years Programme (MYP)! This significant achievement reflects years of dedication, collaboration, and growth by our teachers, students, and school community.
As the only public junior high school in Utah with this designation, we join an elite network of schools worldwide that share a commitment to creating a better, more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and rigorous education. Together with Liberty Elementary and Ogden High School, Mount Ogden helps complete Ogden School District’s state-leading IB pathway—the only one in Utah.
What This Means for Our Students
Principal Cynthia Kuni shared, “The real winner here is Mount Ogden Junior High! Over the past three years, our teachers have transformed teaching and learning, centering your education on key concepts that connect every subject and equip you to tackle real-world challenges. You’re learning to become curious, globally minded citizens who strive to make this world a better place. We are so proud of what you’ve accomplished!”
Students are already experiencing the positive impact of the MYP:
Rani Tonga: “Being a student at an MYP school has helped me become a better communicator. It’s great to get to know others and make new friends!”
Kiera Thomas: “IB encourages me to try my hardest and makes lessons more interactive and fun. It helps me reach for the stars and accomplish my dreams.”
Angy Salinas: “IB has helped me improve my grades and become a better, more social person. It’s taught me skills like communication and thinking that I use every day.”
A Prestigious Future Ahead
This milestone represents more than a designation—it’s a testament to the hard work and passion of everyone in our Mount Ogden family. As an IB World School, we are committed to fostering innovation, curiosity, and academic excellence.
Congratulations to all who contributed to this success! We are excited to continue this journey together as a community of global learners.
