The Metropolitan School District of Washington Township (MSDWT) is located in the northern section of Indianapolis in the State of Indiana, Marion County. It is a dynamic community with broad diversity in cultures, religions, ethnic groups, races and socioeconomic levels. MSDWT has been an educational leader in Indiana for the last forty years.

MSDWT has the finest high school curriculum in the State of Indiana. It annually produces the highest number of students taking Advanced Placement exams and scoring high enough to earn college credits. MSDWT's North Central High School was the first high school in Indiana to offer the International Baccalaureate program. The high school offers programs that allow students to earn the North Central Academic Honor Diploma and the Indiana Academic Honors Diploma.

The International Baccalaureate (IB) offers a sequence of three high-quality programs of international education. In Washington Township, the Primary Years Program (PYP) serves students in kindergarten through fifth grade. The Middle Years Program (MYP) serves students in sixth through tenth grade, and the Diploma Program (DP) serves students in eleventh and twelfth grade. The PYP and MYP are school-wide, all-inclusive programs that ALL Washington Township elementary and middle school students receive. Participation in the DP at North Central High School is by student choice and selection is based upon a three-step application process. Historically, in Washington Township the term IB has referred to North Central's Diploma Program. With the addition of the PYP and MYP in the elementary and middle schools, the term IB now refers to a much larger continuum of education offered in all schools.

All three programs, PYP, MYP, and DP, focus on the development of the whole child, emphasizing intellectual, personal, emotional, and social growth through the study of languages, humanities, technologies, sciences, mathematics, and the arts. The approaches to teaching and learning are diverse and flexible allowing teachers to meet the individual needs of all students. Teachers stimulate curiosity and foster lifelong learning in all students.

Each program also includes a student-initiated community service component that encourages students to extend their learning beyond the classroom. The service can involve service to their classmates or to the larger local and global community. Through such action, students develop skills such as cooperation, problem-solving, and conflict resolution that encourage thoughtful, active citizenship.

MSDWT provides excellent opportunities for students to participate in outstanding performing arts, fine arts, academic teams, publications, athletics, and other student activities. North Central High School has the distinction of being Indiana's number two high school in the number of Indiana athletic championships.

The MSDWT provides quality education in award winning schools built on a foundation of outstanding educators, administrators, school board members, and supportive parents. Our vision is "Superior Schools in a Supportive Community." Come and experience tomorrow today in our school district.
