Luther College High School is a historic independent high<br />

school that has been committed to providing young, eager<br />

minds a quality education in a Christian context since 1913. It<br />

is well-known for its many rich traditions, its diverse student<br />

population, and its unwavering commitment in providing a<br />

strong liberal arts education with the aim of preparing<br />

students for future post-secondary success. The strength of<br />

Luther College High School’s academics lies not only in its<br />

focus on traditional core subjects, but also in its emphasis on<br />

modern ideas and current issues.<br />

Luther College High School was the first school in<br />

Saskatchewan to offer the International Baccalaureate (<strong>IB</strong>)<br />

Diploma Programme. The <strong>IB</strong>’s aim of encouraging students to<br />

become inquiring, compassionate, lifelong learners,<br />

interested in understanding more about other cultures and in<br />

making the world a better place, fits nicely within Luther<br />

College’s broader educational philosophy.<br />

Luther College High School’s regular Saskatchewan curriculum<br />

has been greatly enriched by the <strong>IB</strong> Diploma Programme. Luther<br />

College offers <strong>IB</strong> courses in English, history, biology, chemistry,<br />

mathematics, calculus, environmental systems and societies,<br />

French, German, visual arts, music, and film.<br />

Luther College students have the choice of studying towards<br />

an <strong>IB</strong> certificate or the <strong>IB</strong> diploma. Those who successfully<br />

fulfill <strong>IB</strong> diploma requirements receive both the <strong>IB</strong> diploma<br />

and the Saskatchewan Education Diploma. <strong>IB</strong> certificate<br />

students at Luther College may choose classes in their<br />

favourite or best subject areas.<br />

<strong>IB</strong> diploma graduates from Luther College have attended and<br />

succeeded at North American universities such as <strong>Harvard</strong>, <strong>Yale</strong>,<br />

Northwestern, the University of Texas, McGill, the University of<br />

British Columbia, the University of Alberta, Dalhousie, Queen’s,<br />

Western, and the University of Toronto, as well as universities<br />

across Europe.<br />
