Service

IHA students put their Faith into action by serving their immediate community and ministering to people in need through interactive service opportunities. By participating in the IHA Service Program, students apply their Catholic values by practicing them in projects that expand the students’ awareness of God, others, and themselves.

Sisterhood

On the athletic field, in the classroom, on the stage, or at a service event, the IHA sisterhood is on full display. Daily acts of compassion, encouragement, and kindness are truly inspirational and are at the heart of the unbreakable IHA sisterhood that lasts a lifetime.

Spirituality

Forming students as young women who embody the Gospel is at the center of IHA's mission. Over the four years our students spend at IHA, they are continuously invited to dive deeper into their Catholic faith and further their relationship with God.

Scholarship

IHA offers an extensive curriculum which fosters intellectual growth, creative curiosity, and a sense of values that prepare students to embrace a college curriculum with enthusiasm. We strive to prepare and challenge our students with an increased level of difficulty by offering four levels of rigorous classes.
