The Independence Academy-Indiana

Two of my cousins have attended Independence Academy of Indianapolis. I have watched them flourish since they started in 2008. They both have graduated gone to college and will be moving into their own separate apartments next year. This wouldnt have been possible had it not been for this school and their staff.I attended the end of year talent show. Upon arriving at the school I noticed that everyone was so happy. The students were greeting the staff joyfully and with excitement.The talent show was amazing. There was a wide variety of acts. All of the students supported each other. There was a person who got stage fright and started crying. She left the stage. Some of the kids went back to support her. She came back on stage and every kid was thrilled clapping and genuinely happy for her. It was beautiful.I will never forget the feeling of love and kindness that came across from the first step into the Independence Academy of Indianapolis.

I could not have gone to a better high school than The Independence Academy. Not only did I get my high school diploma but I made many friends whom I still keep in touch with to this day. The teachers were nice and worked hard to teach the students as well as help them achieve success and go down the right path as members of the larger community. All in all I would recommend the Independence Academy and if I had a child of my own I would send him or her to IA.

My son graduated from the Independence Academy. I cannot thank the staff enough for the kindness and patience shown to him throughout his middle and high school years. Although he graduated a year before they moved to their new facility I have seen it and it is a wonderful place

Independence Academy opened new doors into the future for our community. The open environment is beautiful and welcoming for all that crossed and will cross the threshold. We opened our eyes into the journey forward with endless possibilities. I couldnt be more proud

Independence Academy has a lovely new facility This allows for a larger sense of community - which is what IA creates for families. A Warm Welcome for All Highly recommend you see for yourself

I went to this school for 4 years. When I say that I am grateful for the opportunity to avoid public school namely North Central High School I took it. The main reason is that North Central piles on the workload. They treat you like your good grade is just another dollar on the teachers paycheck which actually is how they decide their pay I was told by my geography and history of the world GHW teacher when I went there. As far as I know that hasnt changed. Besides that fact Independence Academy was better because you arent swamped with as much work as a standard public school. They teach ACTUAL LIFE SKILLS How to make a resume how to apartment and job hunt how to budget. I made a suggestion to have a currency to help facilitate earned privileges and we called them IA dollars. We had those old check registers to track our balance. They have fun Fridays and depending on what kind of fun Friday it is depends on what you would do at the end of the day. There was video game movie fitnessleast fave and maybe a few others. I was beyond grateful for the opportunity to go here.However it is expensive. I understand that a parent would take a bullet for their child and that is very admirable but in this case it isnt you its your wallet. The number I am about to tell you is a year. Two semesters.14000.A year.There were some scholarships available for me to chip down that price a bit but if youd do anything for your child and dont mind handing over 14k a year then go for it. Its absolutely worth it if other schools cannot accommodate your child.I graduated in January 2019. Well technically I was done with all my classes and I went to the ceremony in may.

Its on the back of the church building of FMHPC Its a school for autistic kids Great teachers that are so nice and enthusiastic overall a great school...

When we cam here we were lost and in need of so much help and guidance. The staff and school board truly care about the students and families thst attend this wonderful school. We are thankful everyday to have a safe caring accountable loving forward thinking place for my son to call a home away from home. I would reccomend them 1000 times over and would gladly make the same huge choice to move to a new city so my son had a REAL SCHOOL to attend.

I am a student here And I like this school They help us to know ourselves They also help us understand the teacher And it is easier Than my old school Talawanda school district in oxford Ohio was bad

I went to this school from 2011 - 2016. The first two years were fine. The last two year were the worst ones of my life. This school was like a prison for me. It gave me anxiety and trust issues.

Staff is warm and inviting. The small student body allows for more one on one interactions. The sensory rooms are wonderful. The older building is not ideal but the contents make up for it. The neighborhood is a great place for location and school walks.

Independence Academy on tours seems like a great place. That is until they pull out a contract that allows them to disenroll your child at anytime for any...
