STEAM Driven. Student Focused. Future Ready.

Merrick Academy Charter School is a Candidate School for the Primary Years Programme. This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. These are schools that share a common philosophy—a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education that Merrick Academy believes is important for our students. Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme, or the Career-related Programme (CP). Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted. For further information about the IB and its programmes, visit www.ibo.org

Fostering Creativity, Curiosity, and Global Thinking Through STEAM

At Merrick Academy, education goes beyond textbooks and tests. Through our STEAM-focused curriculum and the International Baccalaureate framework, we nurture the whole child—building resilience, creativity, and global awareness both inside and outside the classroom. Our students engage in hands-on projects, inquiry-based learning, and real-world experiences that inspire curiosity and prepare them to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
