Open Quote This is not a school I would recommend. The principal is not involved and does not want to take the time to get to know the parents and children. Not caring towards students and families. Terrible upkeep on school grounds. Due to budget cuts the costs is passed to the parents instead of the school learning to operate under a budget. I would not recommend moving to this area. Schools in Fishers and Carmel have much better ratings. Close Quote
