IMAC prepared me for my graduate (Univ of Texas) and post graduate (UCLA) degrees. My three years of competing in Speech (thanks to Sister Georgette) became the basis for a successful career in business media, including over 20 years with Fox. So sad to see this school close; I wish I had known of its financial difficulties.

Wonderful school, great teachers, tremendous leadership! We are so fortunate to have a school of this caliber in Leavenworth!

Immaculata prepared me for life as a very well rounded person. You are supported to accomplish things that interest you and encouraged to try new things. The environment is welcoming and you get the feeling that everyone truly cares about you as an individual. The classes are challenging that prepare you for excelling in college.

I graduated from Imac in 1991, and am grateful I did. Not only did I receive an excellent education, I continue to remain close with many of my classmates. My parents are still friends with my classmates parents! The bonds myself and my siblings and parents made will last a lifetime! Brian Graf

Two of my children have graduated from Imac. Both were very well prepared for college. Immaculata is a school where students are encouraged to acheive to their highest potential. The sports programs support character development over winning. Peer pressure tends positively toward academic acheivement and moral behavior. Both of my children took college courses during the school day. One has been able to graduate a year early due to these classes. The education of the whole person at Imac is outstanding!

As a graduate of IMAC, I am happy to say that IMAC prepared me not only for college but for the real world. Personally, academically, my freshmen year of college was easier than any of my years in high school. IMAC and its staff taught me organization skills, accountability, and self-discipline through its high expectations. I also learned leadership skills and how to work with different personality types. Despite some comments that have been made about the offered extra curriculars, IMAC has a variety of activities and clubs that students can participate in. If a student is interested in something that is not offered at the school, there are opportunities to collaborate with the public schools. You get the best of both worlds - small, family-oriented school with the opportunities and options of a larger school.Also, for those who comment that the school costs too much - does it cost more than public school? Yes, but it is worth it. There are a number of options in place such as scholarships and reductions. If someone wants to attend the school, the school will work with you financially.

My 2 daughters attend Immaculata High School. The best decision we've made as parents has been to send our girls to a Catholic high school. The emphasis on Christ in their daily lives and how that reflects in their schoolwork and interactions with peers and staff is more than we ever received at public school. Thank you for providing high quality education and spiritual guadiance to my students as they are growing and learning in Christ. (Side note my husband and daughters are not Catholic)

A wonderful place to prepare your child for the future ahead of them. They have hands down the best test teachers and curriculum, which can be seen by the test scores. All of the students are set up for success. do not listen to rumors of this school closing. This school has so much parental and community support that it will never happen. They have many new programs coming up in the next few year if can I highly suggest going down and taking a tour and talking to them in person.

I am transferring to Fort Leavenworth - as a military officer I take education very seriously and seek nothing but the best - I have received great support from the administrative staff and Dean of Academics - extremely helpful and vesting in my child s education and spiritual growth. IMAC is the way to go!!

Disregard everything you hear bad about Immaculata High School. This is a wonderful school full of great and friendly students as well as ready-to-help teachers.

I transferred into Immaculata second semester of my freshman year from out of state. The counselor refused to calculae my GPA for nearly 5 months, the students in my class were very mean and unaccepting of me as a new student, and the school wanted me to retake classes during my sophmore year. The school offered limited gifted classes, and was not accomodating when I had questions. I was paying thousands of dollars to be held back. The cost of Immaculata is a sacrifice, and on top of tuition, you are expected to fundraise and pay more throughout the year. However, Immaculata did seem to have a family oriented feel and the teachers were wonderful. But in the end, Immaculata became a liability insted of an asset to my education.
