Mission & Vision
Our Mission
At Iron Village Preparatory Academy, we are dedicated to cultivating future community leaders and global citizens through innovative student-led learning experiences. Our mission is to empower brilliant minds to recognize their potential by fostering academic excellence, celebrating cultural diversity and encouraging meaningful community engagement.
We believe every child deserves an education that not only meets academic standards but also inspires creativity, critical thinking and a lifelong love for learning. By blending rigorous academics with hands-on project-based exploration, we nurture changemakers who are equipped to make a positive impact in their communities and the world.
Our Vision
Iron Village Preparatory Academy envisions a future where education transcends traditional boundaries. We strive to build a diverse and inclusive microschool community where students from all walks of life grow into well-educated, culturally knowledgeable and universally understanding individuals.
Our goal is to:
Democratize Learning: Make high-quality culturally affirming education accessible to all families.
Celebrate Brilliance: Inspire curiosity and amplify the unique voices and talents of our students.
Empower Changemakers: Equip students with the tools to solve real-world challenges and lead with empathy and purpose.
Our Commitment to Excellence
From our Weekend Workshops and E2 in the Community programs to our summer camps and forthcoming microschool, every initiative reflects our unwavering dedication to academic exploration, cultural celebration and community engagement. Together, we are shaping a brighter future for Richmond and beyond.
