Welcome to The I Am Academy

The I Am Academy provides young men and women with a life changing experience, which empowers, encourages, and enables them to develop needed social-emotional tools and academic confidence for success in school and beyond.

All the activities are connected to Oregon Common Core State Standards and Literacy in Social Studies standards established by the Oregon Department of Education, while the focus is on social-emotional growth and development.
