International Academy is an overall great school in regard to its academic rigor and its balanced learning environment. Each course follows the International Baccalaureate, with the Middle Years Program from grades 9-10 and the Diploma Programme from grades 11-12. It has a variety of enjoyable and skill-building clubs and activities in addition to a welcoming and nurturing environment. All of the teachers are focused on bettering education for their students and building future leaders One thing I would change about this school is the physical building. Currently, the building is relatively small in comparison to other high schools and the facilities (such as bathrooms and the gymnasium/cafeteria/auditorium) are underdeveloped. Despite these physical drawbacks, holistically, the school is a great opportunity for students to excel and gain essential knowledge beyond simple education that they can apply in the future to strive for success.
Very good education and teachers are amazing! However, social opportunities can be limited. Depending on the grade, students can be competitive and overly obsessed with academic performance.
Attending school at the International Academy has been a great experience for me. The academics at the school are outstanding. The IB diploma that students receive at the end of high school is the culmination of their success in completing difficult coursework. Though it is difficult to achieve the IB diploma, it is worth it in the end. The teachers at the school are very nice and always want their students to do their best. You can meet with the teachers before or after school, and they always want to help. If you are struggling with your grades, they will help you improve them because they only want you to see you succeed. Another thing is that the teachers really care about who you are outside of class. They care about the activities that you do and who you are as a person. Another thing about the school is that the class discussions are eye-opening. Hearing people's varying opinions about different topics is a great experience, especially when my opinion differs from theirs.
