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.

it is a great school wonderful academics, wonderful students, and wonderful teachers. They have wonderful food and everyone's grades are off the grid. The students get rewarded with having their phones, going on field trips, and going to wildcat day.

My son attends Indiana Elementary and its a very nice school. I'm surprised by the low rating. They have band and choir there. There can be more field trips and extracurricular activities but otherwise I like the school. My son has no problems there.
