Safety Measures
The health and safety of the students and staff is very important to us. We have put a number of safety measures in place that include cleaning and sanitizing, as well as everyone wearing masks and social distancing.

We ask that you please run through the COVID19 Symptom checklist for each of your children on the days that they are attending school in the building. PLEASE keep your child home, if he or she is sick. In order to protect the health and safety of our community, we must do our part to follow CDC guidelines for schools. 




At our core, we are an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School. We will continue to build upon and refine our proven foundation of best learning practices and innovative teaching strategies through the Primary Years (PYP), Middle Years (MYP), Career-related (CP), and Diploma (DP) Programmes. Lehigh Valley Academy is committed to developing students into critical thinkers who are creative, open-minded and ready to embrace the challenges of a world-wide, diverse society. We believe that all students can learn in a safe, caring, nurturing and student-centered environment. I would like to invite all of our families to join us at school activities and events whenever possible. As a child’s first teacher, parents have a major influence on a child’s success.

Here’s to a MAGNIFICENT school year, as we work together to make Lehigh Valley Academy a great place to learn and work each day!
