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.

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.

I think something about IHS is the fact that the school is amazing academically and programs and education activities are great but the only issue is the people are very clique and rude and it is hard to find people who aren't very judgmental and stuck up. Your basic rich kid school.

I attended this school for about two years and what I can say is this was one of the worst experiences I have ever had in an academic setting in my entire life. Not only am I not white I am also a Latina female who has encountered quite a few racist interactions not only with students but with the staff as well. Many of the students are very drug-oriented, problematic, and constantly getting in trouble with the police. I do not recommend this school for anyone's child's mental health and well being.

An absolute disgrace for a school. Students are loud and extremely over-confident, making it extremely difficult for other kids who are more quiet and dedicated to thrive. The administration lacks fairness and equality. An absurd emphasis on sports while the academic challenges continue to disappoin...
