Imago Dei Academy

What do you look for in a school? One that prepares your child for adulthood with the social a moral values you would like them to have. Imago Dei Academy fulfills the bill and then some. IDA uses a classical approach to education and is the education that gave the world Western Civilization. A Classical education especially a Christian based one prepares students not only to get a job or to continue on with their education but also prepares the mind of the student for innovation, responsibility and leadership which many see lacking in this world. My wife and I chose IDA as a school where our daughter would be challenged to do the best to her ability and where we could be certain the curriculum would not go against our values and where the parents are expected to be involved with the education of their children as well. I realize the cost may be a burden on some but what is training the mind of your child worth when they are out of school and must take on the world? Why not equip them with the best education that can be had? Imago Dei Academy has been that for us here in Alamogordo and the surrounding area.

My child entered IDA in the 2nd grade after struggling greatly in the best public school in our area. He is academically gifted and needs challenged. He absolutely loves school and is learning in so many capacities. Imago Dei Academy and the Classical Christian approach to education has been the best blessing for our family! I highly recommend it to all students no matter their learning ability. It will challenge and develop them into life-long learners.

Imago Dei Academy has changed the life of my family. My kids love our school, and they are learning how to learn, which is invaluable. They are discovering worlds of information and learning to apply this knowledge to their lives. But most of all, they are learning to love the LORD with everything they have. Teaching with our staff, who exhibit God's love, is a privilege as we journey together to honor the LORD.

Nothing compares to classical Christian education! It is so completely different from any other form of education offered. It teaches students HOW to learn, and focuses on the centrality and truth of God's word in every area of learning and life. IDA partners WITH parents in the entire education process, which we LOVE. This is truly a remarkable, outstanding school!

Imago Dei Academy truly strives to give excellence in teaching. My son has been attending IDA since it opened. He enjoyed taking Latin, which tremendously helped with his grammar and spelling. It is truly a different school, concentrating on going back to basics: reading, writting and math with a strong foundation in Christian values.

Classical Christian Education is a challenge for a child to reach their full potential. This school has helped my son who has a learning disability begin to grow and achieve in ways that I never expected. It has helped my other children to achieve great things as well I have a first grader reading on a fourth grade level and a fourth grader reading at a sixth grade level and understanding Latin. How awesome is that.

I cannot believe the difference this school has made in my children; academically, socially, and most importantly spiritually. We are so pleased with this school and the way they work closely with the parents. They have several homeschoolers taking classes there part-time and that is something I have not seen at any othere school.
