Sage International School is a public K-12 charter school program which is a member of the International Baccalaureate Organization.[citation needed][1]
Sage was started in 2010 by Don Keller, Bill Carter, Kim Carter-Cram, Mike Cram, and Nancy Glenn,[2] and started with 214 students in the old Sara Lee Foods offices. The school expanded in 2013, to Downtown Boise in the old mutual creamery building, to eventually expanding to the Parkcenter Mall in 2014.[citation needed] The first graduating class was in 2015–16.[citation needed] Between the two buildings that make up the school, the smaller of the two, Summit, includes most high school classes, whereas the larger of the two, Everest, includes K-8 classes with a few odd high school classrooms mixed in.[citation needed] Unusual among area schools, Sage is on a Monday through Thursday student schedule, with the teachers doing in-service work on Fridays, and students stay home on Fridays.[3]
