This School’s Reviews

4.0 Alum

10/6/2024

The teachers in the school were always very involved, and caring towards student success which is much needed in a learning environment. The administrators weren't as friendly as the teachers, but still seemed interested in student life.

New Prairie High School is a very non diverse school unfortunately, the administration spends a large sum of money on our football team and provides the bare minimum for the arts. I wouldn't recommend attending this school.

New Prairie is a beautiful school, and offers lots of opportunities for extracurricular activities. The school offers a bunch of different career paths, including Building Trades. The main concern for me is that bullying is pushed off and not always taken seriously.

In my time at this school I could not have asked for a better experience. The engagement of faculty, students, and community is unmatched. This school is a home away from home. The teachers care and take the extra step. I would never imagine sending my children to any other school.

Rampant bullying and a culture of torment for many students. Ignorance and drama and close mindedness abound. It’s like being in the 50s and early 60s
