The best part of being an Indian Valley brave was the atmosphere of the school as a whole. The school was very inclusive. I saw minimal bullying and harassment compared to the school I used to go to. The environment was healthy and was nothing close to overwhelming. The teachers at Indian Valley always go above and beyond to make sure their students are prepared for more tests, but for life in the future too. They have a program called "Find your E". The "Find your E" program is required for each student to use and apply in school and for their future. The E's stand for Enrollment, employment, or enlistment. The school isn't just a high school, it is a family, a nurturer, a system of support, and a school that actually does care for it's students. However, the one thing I would like to see change with the school is how there isn't enough media recognition for the students and student athletes. Indian Valley produces great scholars and high end athletes for them to not be recognized.
the teachers are great, they could do better with bullying but it'll always be an issue, However, the administration is awful. they refuse to help students struggling unless it's absolutely necessary, and if you make them look bad by getting bad grades, they'll kick you out. not to mention that there are 3 people of color in the school.
The teachers here really do care and want you to succeed. I moved here from a different school my sophomore year and the teachers greeted me and took me in immediately.
At Indian Valley High School, I really enjoy how we have equal funding for our athletics and our clubs. For example, we have several grants for our clubs to balance out the several fundraisers for sports. We also have a great program for education because we have some of the best teachers teaching us. However, I would love to see more diversity at our school because we are located in a very unpopulated area therefore decreasing our rates in varying cultures, races, religions, etc.
I like the small amount of students that attend so it's easier to get to know your teachers and classmates. At the same time rumors and bullying are quite present in the small school because everybody knows everybody and everybody's business. Also the administration cares more about test scores and making the school look good rather than their students futures. The administrator's shove college down student's throats as if that's the only good option for their future. A lot of the students get frustrated with the high school and their care free attitude as they get older. The teachers are expected to be babysitters and do a lot more pointless work.
Overall Indian Valley is a pretty good school. Everyone gets along with everyone. We don't really have snobby kids. I'm in the marching band and some of my closest friends are cheerleaders and football players. And that's one thing I truly love about Indian Valley. We are all a big family. All of the teachers are pretty great. However the math department needs some improvement on how the teachers teach. The lit and comp, history, science, shop/engineering, and fine art teachers are all so amazing!!
What I really like about this school is how much the staff seems to care about you and your future they are always eager to help you when you have a problem. They also offer quite a variety of classes for you to take, along with it offers dual enrollment. However, activity wise, sports appear to get more recognition than people in the arts, which can be lead to discouragement at times. The school is also set in a very clean environment and the food served in the cafeteria here is not terrible. Overall good school.
The education at Indian Valley High School is great. Most of the teachers are very willing to give the extra help that you may require. They will do everything they can to help you make it to graduation. The curriculum is great and teaches you a good amount of information. The biggest problem at Indian Valley High School is the students. There's a lot of drama and not a lot of camaraderie. Other than that, it's a great school.
The teachers care, there is a diverse curriculum, and you get the feel of a small school in an actually large district.
There are college courses through Zane State and Kent State, as well as tech school offered through nearby buckeye career center. You can combine high school and college or take almost all college courses if you are up to it

I like how involved we can get. We have spirit week just about every week, and there are tons of clubs and organizations to get into. Plus, the school is always clean. The teachers are reasonable and likable, and they'll help you in any way they can. The only thing I wished they would change, is that they stop focusing on football 24/7 and give some of the other sports recognition. For example, there's only one senior night, and that's only on the last home football game. The players get announced, yet there's nothing like that for track or softball or baseball. Our boys are going to playoff and there's this huge event for them, but our volleyball girls have gone to state three times in a row, yet they don't receive any special recognition or event.
Most of the teachers will be understanding and help you with anything you could ever need. They aspire to make their students great. It's a clean school with great technology for every student to own a computer. It is safe and does not allow bad behavior to happen.
They have a great staff that truly cares about your education. They try to prevent bullying as much as possible making it a friendly environment. The building is huge allowing many different classes to chose from. Every student gets a laptop computer to take home and do their schoolwork on.
I like the availability of classes and options to get to go into. I like how we have so many fun events for the students. I would like to see the dress code change.
I like the clubs, i was in so many clubs. Computer Club, Ski Club, Mock Trail, etc. and i loved them all
It's a great school, teachers are nice.
There are many clubs to choose from
I love this school and I wish I could have enjoyed it more while I was still an underclass man
