Events “Indian Springs is much more than a school; it is a community, a place where people will not only welcome you into their conversations but also their lives. Here, students acquire the experiences, friendships and memories that most people don’t have until they get to college.”—Claire Abraham, ’08
“Schools have students, but we have citizens. Schools have teachers, but ours are friends and mentors. Every person who has come and learned here has had his or her character strengthened and developed by the people they meet here, and will always carry around a piece of those people and this place with them.”—William Hawley, ’08
