GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The best part of Inderkum was how many programs there are, and the freedom to explore each path way. The worst part is definitely security as there have just been many concerns on my safety and others many times. Though the fights have died down thankfully.

Inderkum high-school isn't a bad school it just has a lot of issues. Some of the teachers can't do their job. The school is in shambles and they waste money on stupid stuff that ends up slowing our education.

This is a good school if you are an involved parent. Don't expect the staff/administrators to reach out, you as a parent need to reach out. The school is definitely getting better, but still much room for improvement. Principal Garcia is making a difference, glad to see some great parents as well! K...
