Impact Academy High School Principal

Welcome students and families to Impact Academy of Arts & Technology High School!

I am excited to take the helm as IAHS principal after serving as IAHS Vice Principal, and as an IAHS Biology teacher before that. I am looking forward to leading this strong and vibrant community, and to partnering with all of our students and families!

IAHS, an School, creates a thriving learning environment that inspires all students to enter, succeed in, and graduate from college. We are a small school that centers learning around the Core Values of Respect, Agency, Joy, Growth, and Community. Graduates of IAHS are lifelong learners who practice, reflect on, and defend our graduate profile skills of Collectivism, Criticality, Knowledge, and Love of Self and Land, Self-Determination, Leadership, and Critical Thinking.

Pre-pandemic, IAHS prided itself on rigorous experiences such as Work-Learning-Experiences, Exhibitions, and Defenses, in which our students demonstrate their knowledge & skills publically to stakeholders. We are excited to slowly relaunch many of these experiences while centering health & safety as we navigate through the world-wide pandemic. In addition, our staff is aligning their A-G curriculum to Common Core and other national and statewide standards that prepare students for college and careers.

Our talented and loving staff commits to building relationships and supporting and educating your child, and we are looking forward to working with you to ensure the best possible education for every student. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. Once again, welcome to IAHS!

In solidarity,

Pooja Maharaj
