As a parent of a current student, it is amazing the opportunities and support these students have. . . especially for a PUBLIC school! Our student came from a private school with which we were highly pleased. The Academy tops even that. I have absolutely no concern of my student's ability to thrive in college after the Academy experience, and he's already acquired a significant number of credit hours through the Academy's dual credit program.

Graduated May 2016. I would not have gone back to traditional public school for the world. The Academy is one of the most incredible places I have ever attended in my life and I will hold my memories of this place dear for the rest of my life.

I am a parent to a current student. This school has been a Godsend, wonderful in every way. A super way for highly gifted teens to have their needs met :)

My daughter is a junior and I am so pleased that she found the academy. She was attending a large public high school taking ap classes and was bored to death with the academics and the social atmosphere. The academy has been a positive life changing event.

Coming from a tiny town with very few educational resources, the Indiana Academy provided me with opportunities I otherwise never would have had access to. My only concern is that the state of Indiana only provides public education of this quality at one institution, thus making top-notch secondary education otherwise only available to those with the resources to send their children to private schools.
