The selection of separation of classes is very welcoming allowing the students to not be overwhelmed with a large class and everything is organized amongst floors and grades. This allows students to start to think about what they would like to become at an early age. That would have to be the most unique and great thing about this school. Allows everyone to know everyone and become comfortable where everyone knows your name and will help you and it becomes a little family in the short 2-3 years you spend there.

The teachers at this school try to make the best out of what they have. With little funding they try to make their teams and clubs interesting and helpful. With tough students to control they try to really get to them and have an impact upon them in some way. They try to talk to the students about life and help as much as they could.

The curriculum at this school was created especially to help the students to have some understanding while still learning each day and being able to question what they don't get.

All I can say is that I am glad that my son will be done with IS8 in a couple of weeks. I believe that this school could be so much better with a better supporting cast. That is the teachers, the parents , the community. It takes a village to raise a child but unfortunately the village around this s...
