Life
as a Student
It
is widely agreed upon that there are three features
of being at Indian Springs School that make Life as
a Student great.
- The
freedom to make choices.
There is a clear structure to each day at Indian Springs
School, but students don't feel "programmed."
You work with an advisor to select courses that are
right for you. There are tons of extra-curricular
activities, and you are welcome to try any of all
of them … or to start a new one. You work hard,
but you also know that it is okay to take a break
and simply relax. In such an environment you get to
know others well, as you get to know yourself better.
- The
close relationship between students and faculty
… and their spouses, and children, and dogs,
and cats …. A senior who was about to graduate
last year wrote the following, "Had I not attended
Indian Springs, I don't know if I would have come
out of my shell. I don't know what other school has
such a close student-teacher relationship. Going to
a teacher's house for dinner, sharing a birthday celebration,
talking in the dorm circle, or watching a soccer game
together. I love this school and everyone affiliated
with it."
- The
friendships that develop. At Indian Springs School
you'll meet students from around the corner and around
the world. Diversity is celebrated, and cliques are
uncool. The school is always open, and you'll find
day students coming to campus on the weekends to be
with boarders, participate in activities and just
hang out. The friendships that are formed here are
lasting ones.
