My experience overall in this school has overall been good. The school is and A+ school and prioritizes grades a lot with students providing mandatory tutoring for this with a failing grade called "opportunity club." They also try their hardest to be sure that the students are safe and not harmed. The school functions are fun and try to make as fun as they can.

As a student at Independence High School, the overall experience was excellent. Most AP teachers did their best to prepare their students for college, treating us fair and as young adults. Through them, we learned discipline and to put an effort into our academics and community.
