Welcome to Springs

For more than 65 years, Indian Springs School has built its reputation on a set of key principles and values. These include our belief in Learning through Living; our respect for individuality and independent thought; our ethic of participatory citizenship; and our belief in fostering creativity.

Our mission embodies these values, and our faculty, staff, and students live them. We welcome you to join us in becoming a part of sharing and furthering your education and these goals.

Apply to Indian Springs

Deciding where to attend school is about far more than simply making a choice. At Indian Springs School, we combine the best of an idyllic setting with the excitement of an urban environment nearby. But the real decision involves understanding how Indian Springs can be right for you.

Our Admission team can guide you through the process, from scheduling a campus visit to providing you with information regarding tuition assistance, financial aid, and application deadlines.

An Indian Springs Education

At Indian Springs School, we believe in individualizing the educational experience. This allows students to construct their own unique, rigorous curriculum and to learn to explore their passions.

Our graduates may attend the most prestigious colleges around the country and across the world, but our approach to academics means that they discover something even more valuable—how to grow as a scholar, an individual, and a citizen.

Boarding at Indian Springs

Boarding has always been at the heart of Indian Springs School. Today, this experience continues to foster friendships, enhance personal responsibility, and create diverse educational opportunities. Learning through Living embodies potential. You can explore these possibilities through immersing yourself in on-campus life.

Whether you prefer an extra hour in the library, laughter over a dinner with friends, or both, boarding at Indian Springs School means making a choice to slow down, and to step up—to take the time to engage with people, with a place, and with a sense of purpose.

Experience Our Campus

Set on 350 idyllic acres, Indian Springs School is a resource as much as a retreat. Our Fertile Minds Learning Garden and top-quality sports facilities help feed the body. Our sustainably designed facilities help feed the mind.

Emphasizing the quality of student life, our environment embodies the values of community, responsibility, and opportunity. Whether you are on campus for the day or make it your home for the year, this is a space for exploration, education, and engagement.

Giving at Indian Springs

Louis “Doc” Armstrong, Springs’ founding director, suggested that our important work is “to bridge the gap between what is and what might be” in the ways we learn, think, act, and participate in the wider world. This work is undergirded and extended by the generosity of all who share our mission.

Every gift makes a difference. Regardless of your age or situation, we have a means of giving to the school that suits your circumstances. Our Advancement staff stands ready to help.
