GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The school is perfectly adequate in its facilities, and provides a college ready education. The teachers are educated and ready to help, and are respectful. The atmosphere is comfortable, making for an overall good experience.

I'm really fortunate to have the free education that I do but honestly the teachers are a little lazy and prejudice sometimes. So the education I'm getting is fine but the atmosphere is mediocre.

I had a good four years at Indian River High School. Lacrosse is my main sport and we were pretty good for the 3 season have played so far. Coach Spencer and Dietsch really helped my step up my game and are a big part of why I am going on to play in college. Academics, especially English, weren't always my strong suit but the teachers are really helpful in showing you and telling you how things are supposed to be done properly so you don't make the same mistakes again in the future. The only thing that I wish was a little better is the food.
