Doe Creek was a fun experience for me. While the student body is comprised of mostly white people and enough colored people to count on one hand, the resulting mindsets left an imprint on the district. Nonetheless, a child can find their way and fly by the school year with an adequate education and a fun time.

Both of my children have attended NPJH. The teachers are truly caring and work hard to support the children. We love this school!

So glad I relocated to New Palestine to get my son into a better school district. I would highly recommend New Palestine schools. My son has been at NEI 1/2 year and now NPJH 1 1/2 years best move I could have made!

This is a wonderful school for our children. I am so glad that they get the best education that they can to prepare them for High School. I love it here.

Horrible. This school is quite possibly the worst place I've ever set foot in. Purgatory on earth. Please don't send your children here. This school doesn't care about its students' well-being. It just cares about its (impossible) four star rating.
