My experience at idea for the last three years has been lovely. They have got me acclimated with so many different people taught me how to be prepared for college professors in a college environment. They've also sent me up for excess by giving me different people to network within the future with their curriculum being a college acceptance to graduate that has pushed me to be accepted to my dream university which I have in many other universities in the process

IDEA has so many opportunities there. It's not a huge number of students that attend so you will make friends. Since it's a small school you receive more individual attention. Very amazing school

The teachers' main priority is the students. They are always encouraging them to exceed their expectations and challenging them to do better to get an understanding of how they will succeed in college.

I had a very bad experience at my kids old school Barrel Springs which has a higher review score. Even though I moved in 2020 I was hesitant to switch them. I finally did last month August 2023 due to my kids constantly getting bullied at the old school. My daughter is speech delayed and I was recom...
