Indian Woods Elementary School, Smiths Creek | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

I was a student here from 2005-2011. The playgrounds were nice and bigger than the other ones I’ve seen. However, I can’t say there was much else I enjoyed there. If you live north of the river, like I do, you won’t follow your friends to central or PH. You’ll be stuck making new friends at fort Gratiot and northern, because maybe ten of you will go that way. That’s not a bad thing necessarily unless you’re really close friends with someone who goes on to the south side schools. The food wasn’t good, the teachers tended to be mean and overbearing, even though they’ve probably all retired since I’ve been there. It’s located right down the road from a tornado siren, so you’ll hear that pretty much weekly, which is fine but it gets annoying very quickly. At fort Gratiot I was frustrated to find that I was behind all my classmates when it came to basic math and writing skills, despite me never struggling at all academically in elementary school, and pretty much came to find out that the other elementary schools that fed into fort Gratiot had a higher quality education than I did, which made my parents and my Indian woods peers quite angry with having gone there. My mom says that if she could turn back time, she wouldn’t have sent me here, and would’ve sent me to thomas Edison instead. So if you live north of the river, consider school of choice and go to thomas Edison instead, you’ll be glad you did. They’re about equally as far apart from each other, at least where I live.

So so
