Overview

With its historically unique combination of bright, open-minded students who play a significant role in helping to define the school's policies and character, and an outstanding faculty who teach with passion and expect the very best from their students, Indian Springs School provides an exceptional learning environment. Large enough to offer its 330 students a diverse curriculum, the school is also small enough to allow each individual to be well-known and appreciated. Indian Springs is located in the fastest growing region in the United States. Because the climate is warm year-round, students have unprecedented opportunities for hands on learning. It is common to see a Freshwater Ecology course outside utilizing the 12-acre lake in a lesson, an English class reading out and acting out lines from Shakespeare in Armstrong Green, and a student building a drone in the maker space and testing flight outside in the middle of December. Indian Springs borders a 10,000 state park, allowing students to hike, mountain bike, engage in landscape photography, and more. And, being just a 20 minutes drive from downtown Birmingham means Indian Springs students truly get the best of both words by virtue of the school's location.
