Very confortable and safe environment. Great academically with several resources, however a down side is that they don't have sports or much of a school culture.

Personally, I believe I-prep is a great school. I've heard many freshman remark that the high-school is better than the middle school in a long shot. But, I think that the middle school is swell. You can join different clubs, mainly revolving around Robotics.

My son goes to Iprep Academy and he is now on 9th grade. It has been the best decision that I made regarding my son education. He is learning so much at Iprep. The teachers are very knowledgeable and helpful. They really love teaching is helping their student enjoying to learn. Iprep also makes sure all student have the proper equipment needed to learn. I will definitely send my other kids at Iprep. However, it would been nice to have a more affordable aftercare program.

Instead of firing one elementary teacher Ms Giler after numerous parent complaints, she didn’t let the district know and just moved her to teach old...

As a student at this school, I find myself enjoying my time while learning. the only thing I would say is that there are a few teachers that are not good at their job (1 or 2) the rest of the tecahers do a wonderful job teaching.
