GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
Our twins have attended for three years now through the pandemic and I cannot say enough good things about this school. Our standards are high and we’ve been very pleasantly surprised. From the teachers, to the administration, and the “Tiger Way” our sons have LOVED their experience as have we. YES the area is less diverse and more conservative but we have seen a good amount of curriculum come home that has been more diverse than expected for the general area.

"Independence is the perfect place to grow up. It is quiet, safe, has excellent schools, yet isn't far away from shopping, or even downtown. It is surrounded by parkland, trails, and lakes for recreation. The community is friendly and welcoming, your typical small town."
