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.

Although Inderkum High School prides itself in school spirit, academics, and diversity, it's very easy for staff and even other students to make you feel out of place. More well-known students took lots of attention away from students who weren't.

I would like to see better teachers. Some teachers are beyond amazing and go beyond what they need. But there are some teachers who do nothing making it very hard to learn. The best part is the inclusivity they are all races and genders sexualitys and there all supported. I would say the worst would be the teacher support.

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...
