About IAS

IAS Mission & Vision

Mission Statement

The mission of IAS is to provide a safe, culturally responsive learning environment. We value each student’s unique ability to think creatively and critically. We nurture and develop resilient learners through high-quality, individualized instruction where personal goals are identified and fostered. We build positive relationships and believe all students are capable of success.

Vision Statement

Students will engage in self-discovery and develop self-efficacy. Students will gain insight into their strengths and interests to better envision and attain their goals while also serving their community.

Home & Family

Education & Career
