Life with the Mighty Scarabs
Learning at Akhepran does not stop at the classroom door. Our scholars perform, compete, serve and lead, and every one of those experiences counts.
Arts & culture
Heritage you can hear and see
Music, dance and drumming fill our assemblies and celebrations. Through them, scholars learn the cultures of The Bahamas and of Africa, and the confidence to perform.
The year is marked by occasions that bring the whole school together: our Thanksgiving Assembly, National Heroes Day, Bahamian Day, International Day of the Girl and the Akhepran Float Parade through Fox Hill.
Sport
Home of the Mighty Scarabs
Sport teaches teamwork, discipline and how to win and lose well. In 2025 our basketball teams won two BSAA championships.
- 2025

Physical education and swimming are part of the curriculum.
Leadership & service
Leaders in Fox Hill and on the world stage
Our vision is to raise proactive global leaders. That starts with service close to home and grows into leadership on the world stage.
Model United Nations
Our MUN delegations train together to research, debate and represent countries in committee.
Community service
Scholars in Grades 7–12 give forty hours of service each year, from community clean-ups to fundraising walks for the school’s solar panels.
Girls’ leadership
The ladies of AIA represent the academy at events such as the International Day of the Girl, and take part in ShakthiSAT, a global STEM mission for girls.
