Ivy Bridge Academy operates three physical locations across the Atlanta metro area: Johns Creek (10700 State Bridge Rd, Suite 7), Cumming/Suwanee (5400 Laurel Springs Parkway, Suite 403), and Marietta (1511 Johnson Ferry Rd, Suite 100). The academy serves students in grades 2 through 12 with a curriculum spanning competitive debate, mathematics tutoring, English and Language Arts instruction, STEM courses, coding programs, and standardized test preparation for both the SAT and ACT.
The debate program is described on the site as nationally ranked and has produced documented national championship results: Georgetown University (2020), Harvard University (2021), and Stanford University (2023), plus a 2023 National Speech and Debate Championship title. Beyond competitive teams, the academy runs school-based after-school debate programs at multiple elementary and middle schools throughout the metro area, extending its reach beyond its own three campuses.
Instruction runs year-round through after-school sessions, private tutoring, and seasonal camps held during Christmas break, Spring Break, and summer. The academy emphasizes individualized feedback and customized learning plans as core elements of its approach, with each student receiving personalized attention from faculty members. Instructors hold credentials from institutions including Harvard, Brown, Boston University, and the University of Georgia. The founding director is Susan Rhee.
