The teachers were amazing they tried to help students as much as possible. the guidance counselor was very bad at their job. Tried getting help with school but refused and was very unhelpful constantly let out snarky remarks making students feel badly about their grades instead of helping.

My experience at Indian Creek High School was a very good one. It was encouraged to be involved in a lot of activities, making it easy to catch up when I got to college. Their award-winning educational system was challenging but fair. I see room for improvement in their facilities, but that is to be anticipated in a rural area. There could also be more involvement with arts programs.

It's a decent sized school, and we are able to go to Kish and ivvc for college credits, along with ap english. We run on a block squedual. The only thing I wish would change is when we have to take certain classes that are required for graduation, consumers is required senior year at our school compared to paw paw where they take it softomore year because that's when they actually start getting jobs and fileing taxes.

Dealing with administrators that live in a bubble and refuse to see that they have issues they are neglecting.
