This school caused me trauma, and I wish I never had to experience the tortures I experienced at International Academy. If you want your kids to feel trapped in a prison, then this is the school for you.There is no opportunity here, just endless studying and homework for 4 years. The competitive nature of this school will almost never guarantee you a spot in a quality college; considering how most people at IA are well rounded, and you would need to be in the top 1%. Everyone at this school mostly follows the same schedule, so people that want to shine don't get a chance to. There are no athletics offered here, so any athletes out there will have to face an obstacle. For the second-rate education they offer here, and the stress load that comes with it; its just not worth the hassle. Also when there is bad education, it always comes with the price of crappy teachers. Did I mention that the environment here is also terrible, as it feels like you are revisiting an elementary school with no diversity in their student body. If you want to secure your child's future at a good college, then go to a high school like Troy High; which offers quality education, a healthy environment, as well as more possibility for the student. For the expense of minimal stress, a smaller workload, and convenience. The only instance where I can see someone wanting to go to a school like the IA is if its their only option for 
a "decent" high school, but that is a different story. Good luck, and I hope you realize you mistake you are making in choosing to go to IA.

Really good. Number 9 school in the country in 2016. Hopefully it stays the same. Great staff, and teachers care unlike at other schools.

Although my daughter is a sophomore at the IA, our experience has been nothing short of amazing.  The IA model is designed as the "ideal" for high school education.  This school is located in Bloomfield Hills, MI. You would think that the location and status (3rd in the nation and 1st in the state for academic achievement), would lend itself to a state-of-the art facility with the most modern equipment.  This is NOT the case. One trip through the heaved parking lot would quell that theory. The structure is old and out of date, but the heart of the teachers and administration is as well defined as an Olympic Athlete. The core of this program is truly the hidden gem.  The program is rigorous, and is not for the faint of heart .   If, however, you have a serious-minded child who absorbs knowledge like a sponge and can handle a heavy homework load, then the IA may be the right choice for you. Add the fact that the school is incredibly inter-cultural/racial, and you have a great combination for a global learning environment for any advanced learner. This is by far one of Oakland Counties best-kept secrets.

Miss D and her staff are very professional. It is clear to see they care a great deal for the children in their care. I am impressed every time I visit to recertify their staff with their CPR and first aid training... A super great bunch!
