Extracurricular Activities
IPA students compete in many different ILH sports at Intermediate, JV and Varsity levels. While IPA fields its own teams in most sports, some students participate through Pac-Five and Westpac (groups of smaller schools that make one team).
The boys varsity basketball team took the ILH league title in 2011, and 4th place overall in the state tournament. Since the 2010/2011 season, an IPA senior has been awarded the ILH Player of the Year Title.

- Bowling

In addition to these are four honor societies in the upper school: The National Honor Society, the National Japanese Honor Society, the Spanish Honor Society, and the National Arts Honor Society.

Famous quotes containing the word activities:
“Love and work are viewed and experienced as totally separate activities motivated by separate needs. Yet, when we think about it, our common sense tells us that our most inspired, creative acts are deeply tied to our need to love and that, when we lack love, we find it difficult to work creatively; that work without love is dead, mechanical, sheer competence without vitality, that love without work grows boring, monotonous, lacks depth and passion.”
—Marta Zahaykevich, Ucranian born-U.S. psychitrist. “Critical Perspectives on Adult Women’s Development,” (1980)
