GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

As any public school in the U.S, Iprep has a problem with its overall quality of school food. As many other magnet schools, they concern themselves with academics, and students, like myself, feel as if they don't do their best with arranging student life activities for us.

I loved how open the learning experience was. We were able to be open with the teachers about what we did and did not understand. We also were given a lot of freedom in terms of the classes. We were almost never confined in one classroom for the whole 2 hours of class. There were couches for us to go to and separate rooms within the classroom that allowed us to be in our own space and really concentrate.

My son has been attending Iprep for 5 years now. He is having a blast. The staff is very competent, and knowledgeable. The professionalism is top high. Not to mention the use of technology. Back in my days, I was limited uses of technology. Now, my son is taking virtual course while sitting in his class. Therefore he has the on campus and online experience all at once. Also, he is taking AP course. If I could do it again, I will definitely enroll my son in Iprep Academy.

Overall the teachers are great with the exception of one or two that call students names and the principal Ms. Soto-Pujadas lets them get away with it. 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.

We are moving our child out of it. Students with high grades, and wanting to succeed are not supported, the school will sacrifice the students success if they can gain financially.
