Research Independent School private Schools in Wichita, Kansas

“Between our children, they've attended TIS from Pre-K into high school. We're very concerned about the changes in the school recently. All 3 of the principals of the 3 schools have left, many many teachers have left the school, and the new administrators have little or no education or experience in school administration. Under the new accreditation they're moving to, teachers won't even have to have, or be able to renew, a Kansas teachers' license. The school likes to brag about the President's Blue Ribbon Award they were awarded in 2006 under the previous headmaster, but with the new leadership of the school and the high turnover of teaching staff, could TIS qualify for the award now?”

“Our daughter has attended TIS 8 years (Pre-K through 7th Grade). Absolutely the best school. TIS was awarded President's Blue Ribbon Award in 2006. Qualified teachers, caring Staff members. Everything is first class!”

“I attended Independent from 6 - 12th grades, and had a wonderful experience there. The school prepared me well for a challenging collegiate experience on the East Coast; I will be graduating 'magna cum laude' this May. I am still in contact with many of the wonderful teachers from Independent, and am excitedly watching the careers of my classmates as we graduate from schools like Harvard and Duke, KU and Texas A&M. Independent provided me with the opportunities to play on state-bound athletic teams, dance, sing in the choir, and serve our community. I will ever be grateful!”

“This is my sons third year at Independent and he absolutely loves it! As parents, we couldn't be happier with the education he is receiving. The teachers are very caring and they know how to meet the needs of each particular student without taking anything away from the other kids. Our son is being challenged everyday and we feel confident that his Independent education will prepare him now and in the future for any college he chooses to attend. It is a wonderful school and we would't go anywhere else!”

“Excellent education and financial aid is available to those who need! A great investment. The teachers are A++ and the classes are small. My daughter was slightly below grade level when she started, she is now working at or above level is all areas!”

“This is a great school! It is a school for a very traditional education. It is small enough that you can be in any activities you choose to be and get a great education at the same time. I would highly reccomend it.”
