COVID makes school even harder for students who already struggled with traditional school. My son is doing better even during covid then at his school before Shabazz. Thank you to the caring staff.
Posted by a parent on 11/21/2020I thought this was a great high school for my daughter. It turns out that at least one of her teachers posts hate speech about white men on his facebook page.
Posted by a parent on 4/29/2019The teachers learn who every student is in complex ways, and strive to allow them to learn in any way they feel inspired to do so.Shabazz has saved thousands of teenagers lives, both literally and figuratively.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur son is happy and thriving at IMA, after a series of negative experiences at his old, large school. He was overwhelmed and disconnected in classes of 30-35 kids. At IMA, classes are small, his teachers know him, his struggles and strengths. They support his unique interests, and use universal design for learning principles to ensure he can independently manage his assignments even with ADHD. The school community is tight knit and actively welcomes parent engagement, in our experience.Parent Review2w ago - Isthmus Montessori Academy Public

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur family has been attending IMA for the past 3 years and are so grateful to the school and community we have found. We are greeted with smiles each day. Communication is clear - the whole school sends out regular updates (newsletters twice a month and additional reminders to upcoming events), and are fast to respond to questions when our family reaches out. Teacher turnover during the pandemic was higher than non pandemic years (as it was with every school country-wide...) but since, it has definitely seemed to improve and the school seems to have come out stronger than ever. Year after year I see the same staff (front desk, classroom teachers, administration) which is always great to see - and they know all the students and parents by name. It's a medium size school with a small school feel. I sometimes hear new parents talking about the outdoor space and how they wish that there was a more traditional 'playground', however whenever I pick-up my child and see the kids playing ... the outdoor space is exactly what the kids want when playing with their friends! They have forts in the prairie, mowed grass for sports, trees to climb, logs and sticks to build with, mud kitchens, a gaga ball pit, and so much more! We love IMA and will continue to recommend it to everyone we meet with children!Parent Review8mo ago
