Meet Our Principal

Dear Parents, Guardians, and Students,

Welcome to Performance High School. Founded in 2025, our school was created with a clear purpose: to provide students with a high school experience centered on academic excellence, daily fitness, character development, and student wellness.

As we look ahead to the 2026–2027 school year, we are excited to continue growing our school and to serve students in both 9th and 10th grades. This next phase reflects Performance Academies’ long-standing commitment—more than 20 years strong—to preparing students for success through a structured, supportive, and purpose-driven educational model.

At Performance High School, learning extends beyond the classroom. Our program emphasizes rigorous academics, intentional character development, and daily fitness as essential components of student success. Through clear expectations, strong relationships, and a focus on college and career readiness, we work to ensure every student is prepared for the world ahead.
Students and families play a vital role in our success. Consistent attendance, full participation in the school day, adherence to school expectations, and strong family engagement are key to maintaining a focused and positive learning environment.

As a growing high school community, our students are helping shape the culture, traditions, and standards that will define Performance High School for years to come. We are proud to partner with you as we continue building a school grounded in excellence, purpose, and opportunity.
With pride and purpose,

Jason Izolt
