As Kapolei’s first and longest standing K-12 independent school, IPA is your premier choice for an exceptional coed, college preparatory, future-focused education. In addition to preparing students for college, career, and life readiness, our education program focuses on creating a space for students to consider the future world in which they want to live, as well as their role in creating that world. Our design thinking culture and environment encourages students to learn through experimentation to become imaginative, independent, self-reliant and self-directed individuals. Curiosity and creativity are nurtured, along with critical thinking and development of fundamental skills necessary to learn and apply knowledge to real world situations and challenges.
