The High School Experience
With a wide variety of clubs, sports, and activities on offer, IVA High students quickly learn there is more to high school than classrooms and course work! IVA High is a place where students make friends, find their passions, explore their options, and have fun.
Field Trips @ IVA High
IVA High believes that learning should be connected to the world. Teachers, administrators, and partner organizations connect students’ curiosities and passions to learning outside of the classroom. That is most often done by engaging in discussions and connecting projects in the classroom with real world issues. More robust connections are made in the community through field trips, which we offer at least four times a year.

Activities @ IVA High
Part of what makes the high school years so memorable is engaging in and enjoying experiences. At most schools, these events and activities are offered but few attend; at IVA High, virtually every student participates! Why? Because we are a community who enjoys being together and we let students create, plan, and facilitate events and activities that are fun for all.
Part of the family feel of IVA High is not only do we work well together in the classroom, but also we know how to have fun together.
