Courage to Climb
In our vibrant, joyful community of learners, each child is known, inspired, and championed.
IMS provides a distinctive and transformational experience, making use of our extraordinary campus to connect our curriculum to the world around us. We build deep connections between people, our environment, and the passions that give us purpose and joy. And, our cohesive program prepares our students with the skills and habits of mind necessary for future success.
Teaching for Relevance and Purpose
Our future-focused learning environment inspires students to become passionate and creative problem-solvers.
Our Mountain as a Classroom
Having our own mountain provides unique opportunities for experiential learning, outdoor play, and personal growth.
Our Community as a Classroom
Students who learn and live well in their community understand how to make a positive impact.
Life Through Service
Our founding motto endures as a motivating principle for our community and program.
Our View of the Future
The paths taken at IMS are just like the paths up our mountain: different for everyone, rarely in a straight line, and ultimately rewarded with new perspectives, an expansive view, the spirit of possibility, and the tools necessary for the challenges and opportunities ahead.
