about our programs

building community, one activity at a time

At Iron Village Preparatory Academy, we believe in creating opportunities for students to thrive academically, culturally and socially. Our programs are designed to meet the needs of students and families while fostering a love for learning, a celebration of diverse cultures and a commitment to community engagement. From our microschool to dynamic workshops and camps, we offer a variety of experiences that empower students to explore, lead and grow.

Summer @IVP

At Enrich & Empower Institute’s Summer Program, we invite rising 1st–8th graders on a transformative journey of self-discovery, cultural appreciation and empowerment. Each week, campers dive into hands-on themes that blend learning with joy—like turning everyday items into art through sustainable creativity, exploring global traditions in our cultural cuisine labs and traveling the world through language, music and movement. Our campers don’t just observe—they engage, create and connect in ways that build confidence and curiosity.

From STEM explorations that spotlight Black, brown and Indigenous innovators to inclusive Book Club discussions and guided journaling, every moment is rooted in affirmation and representation. Campers also practice mindfulness and movement through yoga and breathwork, nurturing emotional wellness and self-awareness. It’s more than just summer fun—it’s a space where kids are seen, celebrated and empowered to lead with curiosity and heart.

Pulse & Purpose: Creative Wellness through Music, Media and Movement

Pulse & Purpose, a monthly Saturday workshop series led by longtime mindfulness and music mentor Chris Jeter. This innovative program blends mindfulness, movement and digital arts to help students reflect on their emotions, explore their identities and share their stories through sound, rhythm and media.
