International Leadership Academy

What a day at ILA! Today your principal took the plunge -yes, I climbed right into that dunk tank! And the smiles, the cheers, the soaked-to-the-bone laughter made every single splash worth it. Cardinals, this was ALL for YOU. You worked so hard this year through MAP, through STAAR, through every challenge and you showed up with heart, grit, and Cardinal pride. So we celebrated the only way that felt right: a mini carnival, games, treats, and one very wet principal! Inspire. Lead. Achieve. You did all three this year, and watching you grow has been the honor of my life. I can’t WAIT to see what we do together next year.

Join us to celebrate your children's achievements! Please drop students off at regular school time 7:15 am. Acompañenos a celebrar los logros de sus hijos. Por favor lleve a los estudiantes a su hora escolar regular 7:15.

Teacher Appreciation Week is in full swing at ILA!
Yesterday our incredible Cardinals teachers were treated to a build-your-own trail mix bar AND a personal laminator because we know they’re already dreaming up next year’s centers!
Today? A rolling drink bar made its way through campus AND every teacher got their very own rolling cart.
Our teachers pour into our students every single day. This week, we get to pour back into them. 💛
Thank you to every teacher who shows up, lifts up, and never gives up on our Cardinals. We see you. We appreciate you. We are so lucky to have you!
Inspire. Lead. Achieve.
