So my kids go to this school they came to me about a job as a mom I wanted something that work around my kids shedule so I was interested it took them along time like a month before a hr person contact me with the process and by the time I got started I did the finger print as ask and got the stamp and then got sick and had Covid for a few days and miss my drug screen they were quick to move on to the next candidate even though I explain what happened and how I still need the job and would make up for it they didn’t care & even reapplied there rude and not polite and simply don’t care or have any sympathy I’m embarrassed my own kids school would treat me like that they need to be replace & top of that my son has been bullied here multiple Would never suggest this place to nobody & the school district was no help and didn’t want to help me or talk to them when I explain what had happened smh

Tax payer. Principal needs to retired or fired. Lots of bulling. Never would I send any of my family members to this school. I have seen on video what goes on. It discuss me. Also children and parents need to learn how to speak English. Do not send your child here if you want them to have a great education . Again school board you need to take a look at this school and the principal and do something about it. First get rid of the principal.

Teachers are caring and trying to make a difference. I think they would achieve more with the support of parents and the community. If you volunteer and see them in action. They go above and beyond for all students. The parents constantly demand they do more and more, but never take the time to support the school or say thank you.

Will be trying to get my daughter out if this school ASAP!!! Most disorganized school I've ever been in. My daughters teacher doesn't know answers to lots of ?s because it's her 1st year there, but I blame principal for not training well. For car pick-up you get 1 number tag for 6 years of school and if you lose it it costs you $5 to get a new one. This in my opinion is a money maker. Parents should not be charged 5$ for a tag that probably costs .50 for picking up their kids. Most schools use a piece of paper And considering this school is a title 1 school parents probably have more important things to worry about spending $ on. I get a new credit card every 2 or 3 years because of natural wear and they are more durable than the plastic car sign they give you that you have to have for 6 years. I witnessed office staff not able to sign in late students. Everybody in the office should know where the book is for late students and not tell parents that they're gonna have to wait to sign in their kid until a certain office person gets back in. I also witnessed a parent who needed to pick up their kid and nobody could tell her where her kid was. The told her to go to the office (which was closed until after car pick-up) and when the lady tried telling the staff girl, the staff girl just walked away. There is soo much more to say I hope the school district gets involved. Have never seen a staff so unhelpful as I have noticed at this school.

I believed the school is doing ok, however in the morning when the parents are dropping the kids; I think that we need more hands with that. Over in the cafeteria as well more hands are needed to control the kids when they are taking their breakfast.

Indian Pines provides a good atmosphere for my daughter to learn and grow academically. I appreciate the thoughtfulness of all of the teachers and the office staff.

Very positive and dedicated staff. They work very hard with the children. There are many wonderful programs taking place at Indian Pines. School is nicely decorated and very clean. Good communication (DOJO is awesome)! My children are learning so much! This school should have a 10!

Teachers and administrators go above and beyond for student achievement. It is evident that there is strong collaboration and professional leadership taking place. The parents and community are more active within the last year or so. More parental involvement would help. Indian Pines has several enrichment programs and resources. Great communication from school to home. But most of all, students love going to school! Indian Pines has so much to be proud of! So much change has occurred within the past 2 years, so pay attention to the most recent reviews! The past is the past...this is the new & IMPROVED Indian Pines!

I haven't had much experience with the whole school. However, I've had experience with the Pre-K department. Indian Pines Elementary School has a excellent Pre-K department. The are almost having activities inviting families. They always greet you. The teach more then they have to and really try hard to prepare the children for kindergarten. I love Pre-k. The are 5 stars.

Your wrong, the pricapal at this school is Mrs.Robinson. This school is great because there is hands on learning in this school and fun clubs so kids learn new things. They have a new dance team and Chorus and two academic clubs for science and math.

You can never get a call back no matter how many times you call or go by the school, the only thing they do is put it in the teachers mailbox.. the coach is the worst he yells at the kids for nothing .. I had to tell him off for yelling at me after waiting over 20mins for my kids to come out in the car rider lane. He was yelling for me to move up my car and I'm at the front of the line how much more can I move up... for PE my kids played musical chairs... I've never heard such a thing. Last year my son teacher always put good job or great effort in his agenda. Then when you finally get to meet with the teacher she's telling me so many things my son isn't doing. Why all this wasn't in his agenda when the teachers asked so many time to get agenda signed.... This is a new year and its worst still can't get a phone call from a teacher, principal still no better. The new number thing is a joke cause cars skip the line student takes longer to come out, the coach don't need to be working there.. what was a A school has made a big drop..... I wish I could change school
