• School District

• 35 reviews

Senior: Zionsville is a great community and great place to grow up in. The teachers are involved and engaging, and they try to make sure your student is doing their best. Academics are mostly focused on STEM The extracurricular music programs at the high school are great. All the schools from elementary up offer a musical in either the fall or spring semester.
Administration is eager to improve the school system, but they promote a 4-year college over any other form of education.
As the oldest child, I didn’t feel ready to enter high school when I left the middle school, but administration and other high school students do a great job of welcoming in new students.
The school culture is very competitive, especially at the middle school and high school levels; however, students are happy to help each other.
Overall, I’ve enjoyed my time at Zionsville, and the things it’s taught me, both in and out of the classroom.

Carmel Clay Schools

• School District
• Carmel, IN
• 60 reviews

Junior: Carmel Clay Schools has been reputed as one of the best public school districts in the state of Indiana. For the most part, it does rightfully deserve this recognition; the sports and academic programs are some of the best. As a high-achieving student, there are numerous AP classes in order for me to learn at a higher level, alongside numerous dual credit opportunities. As for sports, the rankings speak for themselves. There is sizable population of Asian-Americans, African-Americans, and Hispanic people, which allows for a mix of cultures and beliefs culminating under a singular roof. In addition, there are more extracurricular options than one could imagine. Yet, I feel as though the school could improve the quality of teachers, specifically in the Science department. While they are qualified to teach, many teachers are unwilling to work with students who are unable to understand, and they continuously shrug off concerns of students.

Batesville Community School Corporation

• School District
• Batesville, IN
• 18 reviews

Senior: I really enjoyed how Batesville always wants to improve. The staff and students are always finding ways to live by our motto - Believe In Better. Batesville Community School Corporation strives to make the schools and the community a better place. They are extremely inclusive of all people and are excited to learn about new, innovative topics that could benefit our area. One thing I would love to see at Batesville is more school spirit. We have the community support and know how to build a good foundation for a positive environment, but our school spirit lacks. We need to have more blue and white throughout the school, think of interesting football game themes, utilize the different clubs in our school to have better spirit, and most importantly, have school spirit for everyone - meaning, everyone fits in and feels like they have their voice heard within Batesville Community School Corporation.

Adams Central Community Schools

• School District
• Monroe, IN
• 24 reviews

Senior: I am a senior, and have been attending Adams Central Community Schools since kindergarten. I have talked to many other students from many other schools, and it has come to my attention, that Adams Central is one of the best schools. We have so many opportunities, and the community here is more than willing to help you achieve your goals. You create a friendship with all of the students and staff, making it feel like one big family. I love art, music, and a variety of sports, and I am able to participate in all of these very easily here. The staff are always there for you, pushing you to be the best you can, academically, and personality wise. If I went to a different school, I'm not sure I would be the person I am today, they have shaped me into the person I am. I always try to be the best person I can be, and I have Adams Central to thank for that.

Lawrenceburg Community School Corporation

• School District
• Lawrenceburg, IN
• 6 reviews

Alum: I went to Lawrenceburg High School for four years. In that time, I was overwhelmed with the amount of administrative involvement in academics and extracurricular actives. The faculty cared about each one of their students and their success. One downside of the school is the outdated building. More and more people have started coming to Lawrenceburg High School, and the building is starting to reach its max capacity. I would like to see more money spent on fixing the school as a whole rather than just spending money on a new gym.

Westview School Corporation

• School District
• Topeka, IN
• 9 reviews

Alum: My experience at Westview was an awesome one! The teachers there care so much about each individual student and do as much as they can to help everyone learn. In this tight-knit community there is so much more I learned in my years at the schools than just the schoolwork I did. I liked how this was a small school with really nice facilities. The school has a rich history of high academics and always doing well in athletics as well. One thing they could change is potentially having a better network because at times the wifi would go down for a bit and nobody could use their computers.
