Why IMS?
Our mountain is our playground.
Yes, our 600-acre campus is breathtaking. But that’s not what sets us apart from the rest. Instead, it’s the connections we make between our natural setting and our vibrant community. Whether we’re on the trails, in our classrooms, on the athletic fields, or out in the world, the mountain has something to teach us. It keeps us grounded, offers innumerable opportunities to learn, and reminds us of the potential we have to reach new heights.
But we’re more than just a mountain in one of the most beautiful areas of New England. We are a community of learners, thinkers, doers, and change-makers. Our students take risks, fall down, and get back up again, often with the helping hand of a classmate or teacher.
We set the bar high, cheer for the success of others, and above all, we are guided by the belief that we are better together.
From the Head of School
“In life, and in learning, it takes courage to wander from an expected path, take in the view, and consider different perspectives.”
―Jody Reilly Soja, Head of School
This We Believe
“My grandparents demonstrated bravery, resilience, and tenacity throughout their lives. They have taught me the true meaning of courage in a world that did not accept them.”
Courage to Climb Higher
It’s not just a mountain, it’s a 600-acre classroom.
