Just read that William Penn Charter School in Philadelphia is the oldest Quaker School in the world (1689) and older than Friends School Saffron Walden (1702) in England ... and vis a vis MIT OCW-centric, Quaker-informed (nontheistically f/Friendly) World University and School International Baccalaureate programme ... http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_International_Baccalaureate_Diploma_and_Programme.

See, too -

"Network and accredit with these Quaker schools around the world, and especially vis-a-vis the countries they are in?, Haven't been able yet to find Quaker schools where the language of learning is Russian, Mandarin (Chinese), or French, in the main United Nations' languages, (Friends House Moscow - http://friendshousemoscow.org/?page_id=55 ... Hong Kong Meeting - http://www.friends-hk.org/ ... France Yearly Meeting - http://fwccemes.org/fam/?mg=6), Quaker schools really care for students as individuals (vis-a-vis the 'light within' young people), creating an ethos around this, which is centuries old, and many students love Quaker schools, long after they've graduated, Mid-India Yearly Meeting"

Glad, too, to see that at least three Quaker High Schools around the world are accredited with the International Baccalaureate programme ... Ramallah Friends Schools (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramallah_Friends_Schools), The Friends' School, Hobart (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Friends%27_School,_Hobart), in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, and one in England, Leighton Park School (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leighton_Park_School), which offers both the International Baccalaureate diploma as well as the British "A" Levels (which WUaS plans to do online in Britain, as well).

Friendly/Quaker culture, - peace oriented - and now centuries' old, will be significant for WUaS.

Would like, too, to help welcome f/Friendly culture, and the "Religious Society of Friends" into the information technology and internet ages, and centuries' ahead.
