To begin, the school for the majority part is clean but does not seem that cheerful and bright of a campus. The academics however are significantly good for what they are able to provide for the students.

I LOVE THE MUSIC PROGRAM. THE INSTRUCTOR MR. MEYERS IS THE BEST. I HAD GREAT EXPERIENCES WITH MY TEACHERS. I REALLY CAN NOT COMPLAIN. THE ONLY THING I WOULD RECOMMEND IS FOR THE SCHOOL TO DO MORE THINGS OUTSIDE THE NORM TO BRING KIDS TOGETHER.

Independence High School offers us a comprehensive education with a focus on academic performance. They have a really diverse profile.

It's filled with a lot of lunchtime activities and you get a chance to win some lovely prizes.

My son graduated from Independence High in 2010 then went to UC. He graduated from medical school years ago and is a physician now. A couple of his school friends are physicians or pharmacists too. School faculty is important. Students and parents know what they want is also important.
