Program areas at IMS

Ims is entering its 10th year of operation and is midway through the second year of the strategic plan. The post-pandemic recovery is underway as indicated by stabilized enrollment measured by retention of returning students as well as net new students.

These results support our strategic plan goal of improving student academic outcomes. In addition, donors continue to provide positive support of the ims strategic plan.
