International Leadership Academy

"Our pre-school aged daughter loved her time at ILA. We were very impressed with the entire staff. Massene and Patricia are serious about education but you still feel part of a family. The teachers are exceptionally trained and passionate about child development while ensuring the students have fun as they learn. I highly recommend ILA as a pre-school and education program."

"My daughter is 4.5 years old and has been going to ILA for the past 3 years. She has developed a great relationship with the teachers and staff. Everyone greets her, gives her high fives, and makes her feel welcome. She always walks right into her classroom, excited to learn and play. The pandemic was easier to navigate with ILA because they kept their doors open and ensured that the kids were safe. I feel they can get better about community building and events with the parents involved, but with the past 2 years being in forced isolation, I'm sure that they are working to rebuild that. My daughter is learning French well and just sang her first song in French at her end of school performance. I'm very happy with her education and she will be attending next year as well."

"The teachers and caregivers have all been amazing. Both my daughters enjoy being at school and my oldest (who can speak) raves about her class. Very grateful to have so many caring people who focus on both happiness and learning. As a former marine, I can be a bit "extreme" regarding my daughters' safety and happiness. In 3 years I've never had a day of concern."

"The International Leadership Academy has been an incredible place for our kids to learn and grow. They have accreditation with the French Ministry of Education and through this curriculum, our kids are learning the French language and French culture. After seeing our pre-schooler (and now kindergartner) enjoy ILA, our second-grader switched from LOSD to ILA, and is loving it. The class sizes are small, meaning more attention from teachers, and the leadership of Massene, Patricia, and the rest of the faculty instill a culture of learning and respect. They've recently completed purchase of the building previously leased to ILA by Hope Community Church, and as a result, can further expand opportunities and resources for the kids, on what is already a wonderful campus with an amazing forested playground. And it doesn't hurt that tuition is very reasonable compared to other area private schools. Highly recommend!"

"I am so proud to send my daughter to ILA. It is a great curriculum and my daughter has changed dramatically since her start this Fall. She has learned by leaps and bounds and her social growth has been something wonderful to witness. I truly believe this is in credit to the teachers and leadership and their dedication to the students at ILA. All teachers are credentialed in the preschool programs which was huge for our family! They are truly dedicated to the child's development both academically but also basic life skills. The school also is very good about keeping families in the loop on curriculum, events, and my favorite-a class blog with pictures and videos of the students and what they're doing! ILA is a very professional environment dedicated to the growth of each child. I am happy to be a part of the ILA community!"
