Wonderful school with exceptionally qualified teachers. The principal is an amazing person - so caring, compassionate and focused on the welfare of the children. The ''Ilm'' team, (administration, board members, parent volunteers and teachers) strive to make this school the best possible learning environment. Check out their ITBS results, they are phenomenal!!
I put my child in this school and have never looked back, thank God!! :) Wonderful academics. Well done Ilm Academy!!!
