I think that this school has helped with my daughter a lot and learning in her math. She was a c student in math now she is getting the high honor roll.
I appreciate the attention and concern they have for the children. The education my kids are receiving from the teachers is out of this world and I appreciate the fact they are willing to help and spare their time to offer extra help.
My student is in 8th grade at this school and I am very pleased with the communication between the team of teachers and the parent. I always know what's going on in my daughter's classes.
Many of the teachers are young, inexperienced, and prone to the same type of behavior as the students.
Great academic school. Extracurricular activities are great. Staff is the best. Always helpful.
'Indian Trail Middle School is a very nice school! A school where u know us students are learning what we need to learn for the future years. All the way from 6th to 8th grade have i ever not liked the teachers or how they ran the school. Indian Trail is not a boring school they make it a lot of fun, the only thing that's not so fun is homework and tests, but I think that goes for every student! I am really going to miss Indian Trail, but i learned what i needed to know and now i have no fear for highschool what so ever! If your son or daughter goes or is going to go to IT, i'm sure you wont reget it!' ~Former Student
This is an excellent school. As a student I absolutely love it. The teachers are just great. The environment is perfect for learning. I would really recommend this school for everyone!
I am very pleased with the education my sons have received from Indian Trails Middle School. Everyone runs into a few teachers along the way who need to reevaluate their teaching career, but IT seems to have an abundance of teachers who deeply care for their students. The curriculum at IT is wonderful. It includes Industrial Tech, Home Economics, Computers, ect. which enhance the schools program. The band program is top notch at IT. I think Indian Trail's exemplifies what a 'Plainfield Education' is all about.
Teachers pick favorites and if you're not one, then you're either rated average or below average. Teachers pick the students paths instead of letting the student's true strengths and weaknesses aid them in choosing their own paths. Very subjective school. Teachers are 50-50... you may get a good one/team for your child... but then again you may not. On the whole, they are NOT worth the tax money I put into the system. We need to recruit true teachers who care about the students and who realize that a student's failure is their failure!
