My love for Island Pacific Academy goes beyond words. It is a place where academic excellence, strong community, character education, global perspective, innovative teaching, cultural diversity, and a beautiful campus come together to create an extraordinary educational experience. IPA has had a profound impact on my life, shaping me into a well-rounded individual with a passion for learning and a deep appreciation for the values it upholds. It is more than just a school; it is a place where dreams are nurtured and futures are built, making it an institution that I hold in the highest regard.
The best part of Island Pacific Academy was that I had a couple of very close friends that also attended and because of the small class sizes, I felt like there was more space for us to connect with fewer distractions. We were also able to connect with the teachers more for the same reason. I enjoyed the feeling of community that we created in our classrooms. The worst part about the experience was that they lacked organization and structure in our events. While the small class size had benefits, when it came to school spirit we fell short because there wasn't much that the school would allow us to do. For example, except for community service, we never had any field trips.
I am currently attending IPA. It is an amazing school filled with wonderful students and staff! The teachers here really challenges your education and try to push you a little out of your comfort zone! The activities done have also prepared us mentally for college! I love the bond and communication between the school and families, especially during times like these! Giving weekly updates, ensuring all students and staffs safety, and putting forth best efforts to make learning as normal as then can be, makes my family and I thankful for IPA!
