My son just completed his second year at IBA. The experience has been great. The Principal, Office Staff, Faculty, and Parents are all great with an emphasis from all on the kids getting the best education and school experience possible. The after school homework club has been fantastic with my son able to complete most of his homework at school. I highly recommend this school to any parent looking for a smaller, more personal school in the Sherman Oaks area.
School challenges my son to study harder to maintain good grades while he breezed through elementary school. He gets to practice math at home on the computer through a program the school offers. I think kids are more disciplined, confident and they are not just passed on to the next level because they have to be (No Child Left Behind, etc) because of the small school environment. Teachers know who their students are and how they are doing academically. I love that they offer PE and Art and at times they have offerings of music after school as well as Spanish. Kids may stay after school to join the Homework Club and get some more guidance to do their homework. I am very happy with our school and it would even be better with even more parental involvement.

This is our second year at IBA. My son has really thrived in the culture created at this school. The teachers and staff know him beyond just his name. They care about him as a holistic individual. They want to see him grow into a well-rounded individual. The homework load is manageable. There's a homework club available after school where students can stay and get help from the teachers so mom and dad don't look so clueless to their kids! We get half day on Fridays, which works great for our weekend get-aways! The kids have computer class as well as computer assisted math, plus all the usual core classes. We even have Art and PE classes EVERYDAY! If you're looking for a safe middle school that challenges your child academically, then IBA is the place for you!
