Incline High School Reviews

Overall, IHS is a great school. It's very small, under 400 students, but it still has a sense of community. IHS does not offer French or AP Chemistry anymore, but there are many other STEM related classes such as Engineering, Anatomy, AP Physics 1 & C, and AP Calculus. IHS has many amazing teachers, especially in the history, maths & science, and english departments. These teachers go out of their way to help their kids. The diversity isn't great, though. IHS is primarily white and Hispanic, with very little of anything else.

Incline High School is very small, and while that is to be expected in a small town, it results in less opportunities in both class choices and extracurriculars. Our administration is constantly changing and lacks consistency. We get a new counselor every year so we have nobody to help us with the college application process.

I moved to Incline High School from a larger public school. Here, the staff knows almost every kid at the school, which is nice until the rich kids avoid punishment because the school knows what their parents will do. There are some really good teachers at the schools, and others not so much. Academic-wise, the schools do okay but could improve the options that students have accessibility too. The technology in the school is also hit-and-miss.

Review Incline High School

The small class sizes make it easier for teachers to help students that are stuck in their learning. There is a better sense of community in a small School like this than in a bigger one.

Out of the 217 high schools listed in Nevada, it is ranked 11th. The school contains many credit classes through truckee community college and other sights that help students prepare for college, especially our local university or Reno. The school also contains qualified teachers with classes such as APs and STEM electives that prepare students. The biodiversity and school culture could use some improving but I believe that is because of our almost secluded and small town.

Small school, hard to be motivated, lots of issues. Some teachers were great, others were just awful. Food was below par, some was too bad to eat.

Incline High School is a very small school in the mountains of Lake Tahoe. Because it is the only school in Incline Village, all the kids attend it and that means it is very connected school. All the students have grown up with each other and developed a strong bond but also greatly appreciate students who transfer. The teachers and administration at Incline High School do an excellent job of exercising this bond by organizing events around the small town that all the students can attend.
Since, it is a small school the sports program is amazing in that almost everyone makes the team regardless of skill which allows students to explore new activities and remain active. Despite having a limited amount of athletes, the sports program always excel having a least one team winning a state championship in all four years that I spent there. The population at IHS is about 60% Caucasian , 35% Hispanic, and the remaining 5% African American and Asian. However, everyone gets along.

Terrible terrible terrible school the way teachers treat the students disgusting unless they are at the top of their class. The only sane person is Whitney Feohl. Kari Michaels is the worst person I know has very bad problem solving skills makes children extremely upset and uncomfortable.

I have really enjoyed my time at Incline High School. Academically I have been pushed so that I could do my absolute best. Socially, with the support of the community, I have grown into my passions.

Incline High School is an incredible school located in a beautiful place. The classes are excellent and teachers are very capable. I would like to see certain improvements to the condition of the school, such as new lockers. Otherwise, Incline High School is a wonderful school.

Small class size and great teachers!
This small high school offers a great range of honors and AP courses.
They have one of the top We The People teams in the county with a long history of Top 15 placements at the National Competition.

The teachers are so caring and nice and really get to know every student because the school is so small. It is not uncommon for teachers to cheer on their students at sports games and such. The school itself is in a really beautiful area, and technology is very prevalent in classes.

Small schools are commonly overlooked, but Incline High School is a place where you get dedicated teachers that want the best for you. Everyone knows each other and it is a very comfortable space. There are also multiple APs offered and great resources available to students.

I love that the classroom size is so small. Teachers are very involved with their students and are very willing to meet with them for extra help

Over all I really enjoy going to Incline High School. I believe that the connectivity of the school is greatly lacking as well as the facilities. we need more money to do updates around campus and fund our extra curricular activities.

Incline High School is a small school in the mountains that has a culture of its own. This school is highly academic based while pretty social based as well. The academics here are incredible compared to other schools in the area. The teachers are always willing to help and readily maintain a positive attitude throughout the year. If I need help with any of my classes, I am never afraid to come after school or during lunch for help. In terms of the social aspect, there are many cliques and as a new student, it is difficult to make friends and find a good group of people to hang out with. Sure they are nice and inviting at first, but the girls here can be harsh. With so little students in each grade (around 70), drama and judgment is, unfortunately, prevalent. Overall though, I would rate this school above all of the others in the area.

Great place to have close relationships with teachers! However, the class offerings are very limited.

Review Incline High School

Our sport teams are among he best in Nevada, we are constantly winning state titles in several sports. However no one goes to the "clubs" our school has to offer.

Basketball is by far the largest supported sport at our school; everyone attends boys varsity basketball games. Hardly anyone knows about any other sport. Many students are involved in multiple sports. Last year we redid our weight room and got an actual track so that's improved a lot! We also have a rifle team and shooting range. We don't have our own baseball or softball fields or pools but we use the community ones, which are all very nice.

Some of our teachers are outstanding, a couple stand out in my mind. All of the teachers know what they're talking about and are available for at least an hour after school, at lunch, and before school for help if needed.

All of the teachers are individuals and teach in their own style. This does cause a difference in grading, some weigh homework heavier than tests and some are the exact opposite, but each of them maintain their method throughout the year.
