  • IB PYP - What's That?

    The International Baccalaureate (IB) World School at Huffman Elementary Primary Years Programme (PYP) fosters the development of knowledgeable, principled and internationally minded citizens. The IB PYP focuses on the whole child, develops effective approaches to teaching and learning, works to increase an understanding of languages and culture, and explores globally significant ideas and issues. Our scholars approach the world with an open mind and aspire to understand the different perspectives and ideas of others, while helping to create a more peaceful world.

    Plano ISD's First Choice Elementary School

    The IB World School at Huffman is Plano ISD's first choice elementary school.  While students who attend Huffman are within the Huffman attendance boundaries, each year in the spring, we open up a lottery registration for all students who live in the Plano ISD boundaries kindergarten through 5th grade. Students from all over PISD attend our school.  For more information on the Primary Years Program, visit IB PYP or ibo.org
